Thanks John for posting this. My thoughts and prayers go out to his entire family during this painful time. Jim had some of the nicest large fowl silver and brown red Ameraucana I saw at different times throughout the years. He was at most of the National meets that I attended up until he had to sell off his flock, and one of his children would always accompany him. He was a true asset to the Ameraucana Breed and our Alliance and will be dearly missed by many.

Here is a link to Jim's full obituary.    https://www.bjorkandzhulkie.com/obituary/james-fegan

For those of you who only remember him as an old man, here is a little different perspective.  We were all young once.  So was Jim.
