Jim Altemus passed away yesterday (9/24/19).  His wife Carol asked me to share the news with SAPFM membership.  I beleive Jim was a member of the of the Board at one point, and he organized and ran the Iroquois chapter.  He was also a long time member of our local club, the Rochester Woodworkers Society.

Calling hours will be at Johnson-Kennedy Funeral Home, 2 South Ave., Bloomfield this Sunday, September 29th from 2-5 p.m.
A memorial service will be held at the Brooks Grove Church at the Genesee Country Village & Museum in Mumford, NY on Tuesday, October 15th at 2 p.m.  Guests will be able to park in the interpreter lot for closer access to the church, and there will be special signage for parking.  There will be a reception following.




 
Condolences to his family, and friends.
Jim was always a pleasant guy. Willing to help and share information. He will be missed
