My condolences to the James Bauer family! What a great man! I will forever cherish all of the amazing conversations that Jimmy and I shared at the Living Community of Saint Joseph! He was so proud of his family and was extremely proud of their many accomplishments! After my mother and mother-in-law passed, who were residents as well, I would continue to check in on the posse! I am thankful for all of the precious moments that I was privileged to share with the "Warden" and my dear friend! May Jimmy now Rest In Peace with our Lord and Savior! Well done dear friend! Love ya brother!
