Longtime GFJ employee Jim “Par” Panella passed away suddenly this week.  His buddy “Roxy”, a familiar face at the library,  came by for a visit today. Roxy is now living with Jim’s sister-in-law. Everyone at GFJ deeply misses them both.

The library will be closed today (Wednesday, February 5, 2014) due to the weather.
