James FX Heffernan

If a smile, kind gesture, or imparting a chestnut of wisdom salted with sagely advice be the ticket to eternity, then surely Mr. James Heffernan´s ticket is paid in full. R.I.P., Jim Tim & Bonnie

An absolutely wonderful man that I only met shortly before his passing. He left a wonderful impression on me, and I feel completely blessed to have known him!

"Help me to want what You want me to want!" I´ll never forget Jim´s wisdom, or his big welcoming smile. A giant Heart, open to all. Save me a seat, James, I´ll be there hopefully later than sooner.

I'm going to miss Jim's smile and big-hearted kindness. He was a man who reached out to many with words of encouragement and comfort. His example will live on in the many hundreds of men he mentored along the path of recovery. Thanks to everyone in Jim's family for sharing him with us so generously.

James was an Inspiration to me on my Trip along the Road of Sobriety. He will be sorely Missed but Not Forgotten.
