James J. Hackley was a man of honor. He proudly served his country in the Air Force. He then pursued a life as a loving husband and father to his family and to those he encountered. He was a friend to many and cared for everyone he met. He loved unconditionally and his passion was to be a server to all just as Jesus did and to live a Christ like life. He is not gaining his wings today he has always had them. May he Rest In Peace.
