Katie, I was so sorry to hear about Jim´s passing. I enjoyed our many years together working at Jefferson. We had a lot of laughs. I have many fond memories of Jim, and I´ll keep all of you in my prayers.

My sincere condolences to the entire McMahon family and friends. Jim will sorely be misses for his guidance as a father, husband and neighbor.

We always had a few laughs about our antics and experiences with the Irish Christian Brothers at Leo High School. We could always speak of those days as if they were but a few years ago.

May he rest in peace.
