7-Yr.-01d Boy Found Dead
ROCKLAND LAKE, Dec. I3 (AP)

The body of a 7-year-old boy was found In Hook Mountain State park today.
Police said the boy, James Bracy of Rockland Lake, apparently fell from a 3OO foot cliff.

"I visit his Grave which comfort me. He was 8 years old in 1953 which would make him about 65 today. I leave things on his gravestone like Yardbird hats and other Rock N Roll memorabilia. No one else visits."

"My schoolmate Jimmy Bracy fell off this mountain in 1953 and was killed. The shock of that tragedy stayed with me through my adult years. His Grave is in Gethesmane Cemetery"

"...Also at St Michaels Church, where my childhood classmate Jimmy Bracy had his funeral. Odd that we were both together at that church the Sunday he died. He was a Choir Boy."
