Whether you addressed him as Dr. Ansfield or Jimmy Blue, he had the biggest heart, a sense of humor and a great smile. To you, he may be Dr. Ainsfield, but to me, he will always be Jimmy Blue.
Our story begins a few years ago when Mila’s received a call from Jimmy Blue who wanted to order a chocolate cake for his 79th birthday. On September 15th 2021, a man in a bright blue outfit with a big smile and cheery voice walks in.
We spoke for a while and immediately formed a bond. Then he shows me photos and even danced for me. His energy, humor and friendliness was contagious. Others in the store including Mila, noticed his positive energy and love for life. Afterwards, I called a friend to tell her of my fun experience with Dr. Ansfield aka Jimmy Blue. Immediately, my nurse friend knew who he was and only had positive words to say about Dr. Ansfield.
On September 15, 2022 a bright Jimmy Blue, whose favorite color is blue, comes to the bakery on his 80th birthday for another chocolate cake. Again, we talk, laugh and have a good time.
On April 10th 2023, Dr. James Ansfield also known as Jimmy Blue passed away. I was fortunate to know him and honored that he loved Mila’s chocolate cake very much. His son, Johnathon ordered a chocolate cake full of blue hearts for the shiva. Dr. Ansfield was full of love, laugher and a huge heart for so many. Cherish each other, enjoy life and stay fit like Jimmy Blue. Most importantly, celebrate birthdays and eat chocolate cake❤️❤️❤️
May his memory be a blessing and in our hearts forever.

Anna Bakalinsky
