Lucky touched my life several times. I originally met Lucky as a teenager and attended his very first baby-sitting class. As an adult, because of Jim's involvement with the fire service, I saw him often at the Station. Later, I had the opportunity to work with him at Erie Insurance. He was a good man and will be missed. Our prayers and thoughts are with the family.
