James V. Hassel

I always loved visiting my mom´s house because that meant I got to see Jim & Mary Ann! Our dog Maggie would get so excited knowing we´d be seeing Jim! So excited that she would pull me out of my mom´s front door and pull me/ almost drag me to Jim´s driveway where he´s be sitting waiting patiently with a pocket full of doggy cookies! It just took Jim once to win over Maggie´s heart. I will never forget the laughter it brought to all of us! Jim would laugh that Maggie almost bit off his fingers while enjoying the snacks! They quickly became friends. So much that upon returning to mom´s house after our walk, she sat on the floor staring out the front door at Jim until she fell asleep. We loved Jim and his kindness. He will be missed.
