Last Saturday a park bench was dedicated in the name of Jim Somerville. Jim was an original beach bum and lived for many years at 195 Beach Blvd. The new bench is located on the Path behind Skyway Park. Many of Jim's friends and family were on hand for the ceremony (first attached picture) and his brother Russ was nice enough to fill me in with the history along with some old pictures.
This was the first bench dedication I have seen down here and what a great way to remember the man.
Thanks to all the Somervilles for their help and patience on Saturday!
