Hello, I was given the opportunity to be in BJs home from 2009-2011 and I enjoyed getting to know him through his community outings and interactions with his housemates.
May the beautiful memories shared hold you all in comfort and fill your hearts with love. Liz Doyle

BJ
BJ was a child at heart. The things he loved never changed in his heart, his eyes or in his mind.
God made him special. He had compassion that was present while still a young child.
BJ could touch the heart of everyone that stood before him.
We really believe he had a magnetic personality that drew everyone to him.
BJ was loved and admired by everybody. His smile said everything needed to express what he wanted to say.
BJ was an inspiration that drew the best out from all he came in contact with.
BJ had a warm heart and a contagious smile that expressed his love for family and life.
We were blessed by God and thank him for giving us 63 years of amazing memories.
BJ will be missed by many, but every person that ever met him, will have a part of his memory embedded in their heart.
God has taken BJ to a new life, and somewhere in time, we shall be together again, for eternity.

So many memories to choose from but one that stands out was when we took B.J. to see the movie The Croods. He laughed so hard! I was laughing because of B.J.! ❤️❤️
LOVED hearing him laugh!!!
