James Benjamin Finnegan Jr.

Spring 2003 I had 6 yards of dirt dumped in the driveway of my new home in Sun City. I started hauling loads to the backyard. I glanced down the sidewalk and here comes an older than me guy with a wheelbarrow & shovel. Yep, it was my introduction to Jimmy. What a guy.!

One of the best docents ever! Very knowledgeable and very spiffy in his docent uniform, topped off with red suspenders and black bow tie. He always had a smile and a laugh to share. He will be greatly missed at the CA State Railroad Museum, especially on Monday mornings and in the Railway Post Office Car. My heart goes out to you, his Precious Family, as do my thoughts and prayers.

I will miss Finny a lot as I have missed for several years, his company on the golf course. Two remain of our original foursome which played together on Thursday mornings for over 6 years. An impish Irishman with a great sense of humor. May God bless and keep him.

My hope is that the support of family and friends will comfort and strengthen you in the days ahead.
