Obituary
James T. Haddon, age 79, beloved husband of Carol Haddon (nee Stern), happily married for 57 years; loving father of Julie (Edurne) and Todd (Jackie) Haddon; cherished "Grandpa Putch" to Jakob, Olivia, Gabriel, Weston and Logan; much loved brother of Rabbi Jon (Jean) Haddon, and the late Harvey Haddon. He passed away from COVID-19 complications. Outside of his family and vast circle of friends, Jimmy's two greatest loves were watching and playing all sports. He especially loved his Sunday 16-inch softball doubleheaders, and practicing family law for over 50 years. He was an avid poker player, enjoying every game he could find. He was a gifted and generous "people person" and was dedicated to helping others while advocating for civility and improving human rights. He will be greatly missed.
