Friday's Photo: Uncle Jimmy

James Gallagher Richardson Jr.   1930 - 1988

James Gallaghar Richardson, Jr. was my mother's sister's husband and the only uncle that I ever knew. This was taken in the late 1940s after Jimmy's time in the Army. Behind Jimmy is friend, Bob Pressler. I would assume the photo was taken in NY, probably Franklin Square. 

I've had this photo on my desktop waiting for a good time to post it and now is the perfect time. Uncle Jimmy died of ALS in 1988. My Aunt Janet is going to walk in the ALS Association’s Walk to Defeat ALS on September 19, 2015 on Long Island. If you want to donate, click here to see her page with more about Uncle Jimmy.
