Embark on a heartfelt yuletide journey with Jennie and Dianne as they uncover the remarkable story of James J. Brady at Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Detroit, Michigan. Despite humble beginnings, Brady's life is etched in the unadorned markers beside his wife, a testament to a life lived in simplicity and generosity. From a runaway at the tender age of six to becoming a successful businessman, Brady's legacy extends beyond his time, resonating through the Old Newsboys' Goodfellow Fund he founded in 1914, ensuring "No Kiddie Without a Christmas." 109 years later, the organization stands as a testament to a life well-lived. Discover how James J. Brady, who kept Christmas in his heart year-round, serves as a timeless reminder to believe in the joy of giving, especially during the holiday season. Join us for a tale of resilience, kindness, and the enduring spirit of Christmas.
