Judy and family,

The Brodbecks remember the beautiful Browns and especially the wedding in Cana with Kim and Ken. We share your loss but rejoice in Jim's graduation into eternal life with our Lord.

On my first morning of work as Scottsville Town Adminstrator, Jim drove by the Town Office, told me to get in the car, and then he along with Council Member Jim Hogan, drove to VDOT headquarters in Culpeper so we could learn more about "transportation enhancement grants". And with that road trip, we began the long work together to raise federal and private money for Scottsville improvements.

Jim was always so gracious and had a wonderful ability to nudge us gently to stay focused...

I considered Jim a great boss and friend! I will miss him greatly.

Scott and Mary, we are sorry to learn of your loss. What a remarkable life...
