Read MoreFirmon was a charming and delightful member of Friends of the Library , it was always a pleasure to see him. I repaired one of his beautiful vintage vests and he was so pleased, I was truly happy to do it for him. He was always turned out to perfection. I will remember him fondly and know his family will have wonderful memories of him. Andi Preston

As Elise mentioned previously, I would also see Firmon sometimes at the Vestavia Hills Friends of the Library meetings. I would always say hi, and talk to him, never knowing that he was a Boston boy (like I am). I now wish I had known it because we'd have had a lot more to talk about ! I just want the family to know that we thought of him as a "good guy".

I would see Firmon sometimes at the Vestavia Hills Friends of the Library meetings. He was always a delight to talk with and was always well dressed. I will miss him.

We would like to attend services- bring a memorial note, instead of sending it. Betsy. (202<545<0951)
