In 1967, two men would lose their lives while attending a rooftop party in New York. Jim Stephens and Jeff McGrath were both successful men with plenty of people who loved them, but one freak accident involving a hammock and a chimney would ultimately cut their lives short.
Both men had enlisted in the army in their younger days but had since built a regular life in New York, marrying and starting careers before the tragedy struck. James “Jim” Stephens worked as a radio commercial announcer and had found a great deal of success in lending his voice to numerous stations. Meanwhile, Jefferson McGrath worked as a cope supervisor at an advertising agency.
