George and Dolly Bruno, my father and mother, were very close with Joe and Angie Iacona and we visited them for dinner often when they lived on Kerlin St. in Chester, Pa. They had a small pool table in their basement and it was Joey, Gary and Jimmy that got me interested in the game that became a lifelong endeavor for me. I got my inspections and repairs done at Jimmy's Auto Repair and would stop in some Saturday mornings with a dozen donuts for the crew right up to a few weeks ago. When time allowed, Jimmy and I would talk for 20 to 30 minutes, mostly about the old days and the adventures we had together. Jimmy was a very generous friend and supported my motorcycle club's fund raiser for Shriner's Children's Hospital of Philadelphia every year. Jimmy stayed up on current events and was always concerned when things occurred that he felt would negatively impact our country. Jimmy served his country in the military, he served the people of Delaware County by providing affordable auto repairs, and he served his friends by being a kind, generous and loyal companion.
