On September 28, 2014, Birmingham Township’s Recreation, Parks & Open Spaces Committee dedicated a plaque on a bench at Birmingham Hill Park in honor of James "Jim" Phreaner, 1948-2012, and his work with their committee over the years. 

Jim devoted much time to family and volunteer work in his community including Birmingham Township’s Recreation, Parks & Open Spaces Committee, the Quarry Swim Club, Chadds Ford Live online news and Birmingham Friends Meeting's Religious Education Committee. He was a valued member of Birmingham Meeting and brought much joy to us with his effervescent manner, readily available hugs, smiles, jokes and love for the children who loved him in return. Meeting members and township officials spoke fondly of Jim.  He will be long remembered fondly.
