I don't know why I have to write to you but it makes me feel better I just keep writing the same thing because I don't know what else to say to you. You understood when something made me feel bad and you would tease me about it till I started to laugh and you would give me a hug.
I have been so sad since you have been gone and no one can make me laugh or make me feel like you do.I miss those hugs

Dear Mancini Family,
I cannot express how sorry I am to hear of Jim's passing. I just now learned. While I only knew him well during our childhood, I see from the testimonials written here that he continued to be a fun, caring, and beloved man.
From the day at age seven I moved into the house across the street from your Belton Drive home, to the (sad for me) day five years later when you moved to Hampden Meadows, Jimmy and I must have played just about every day, along with the rest of that large boisterous gang of kids in the neighborhood. What fun Jimmy was! I would wish every kid could grow up having a friend like he.
My deepest condolences to all of you on this very sad loss.

No matter how may people that I am around I am so lonley inside without you . I just miss you so much. I'll always love you

My baby is gone and I can't see him again.I need to hold you and hear your voice just to have you here .so much to say to you, I miss you so much.I want to wake up from this nightmare the pain is so bad.Your love was all I ever needed.So much of me went with you that day .my heart is forever broken.
October 28, 2009
Its been almost three months since the day you left.I didn't think I could feel such heartache and pain.but everyday your gone it grows deeper and deeper .Its so difficult not having you here with me I miss your beautiful face and wonderful smile.and the way you made me laugh. I was just happy to be with you no matter what itwas we were doing .My life will never be the same without.I don't know how to stop the tears from falling.Gone is the happiness in my world it stopped on that faithful day. I will always love You my Jesse James

To My Loving Big Brother Jim,
It is one month today that you left this earth, and became an Angel in Heaven. Although your body is no longer here with us, I know your spirit is, and you are watching over us. This has been the longest month of my life; I feel like I have aged a year. I feel lost and lonely knowing you are no longer a phone call away. You have been my big brother, my best friend, and my mentor, for my 43 years. I learned so much from you. I will cherish all our times together, forever. You made me laugh so much. I just wish I could give you one more hug. Please give Grandma and Grandpa a kiss and hug for me.
Till we see each other again in Heaven, I Love You and Miss You.

Jim
From teenage years into our late forties you’ve been my best friend. We’ve shared so much. You’ve been my best man, and Godfather to my son. A knock on my door in Florida – I didn’t know you where coming, but we fixed the problem. I called you from a hospital bed in North Carolina, and you where there the next day. You did so much those next days, and at a personal price I didn’t learn about until much later. So many camping trips: 8 winters in Vermont, 26 hrs stuck in the snow, overnight on a flatbed wrecker, Columbus Days in Vermont. One trip we didn’t get to make…
You will be missed so much, by so many.
Annie & James,
Your lives have been changed the most. You know we will all be here to help.
The best times with Jim have been shared with you guys as well. We’ll get to do more. James – There’s a lot for you and I to do.
Bobby,
Our loss is more the same than the others. We’ll get through this together. But it’s not easy…
JIM & PAT,
I can’t imagine losing a son. It’s a pain no parent should have to face. “My deepest sympathies” just isn’t enough.
Jim knew what a true friend is. He always put his needs second to mine. He shared all my best times, and more importantly, all the tough times too. He got me through so many things. For over 30 years we have been so close, but we never argued, not once. How many people could say this of a best friend? It takes a person who is truly unselfish, one with honor and integrity. This is the son you raised. Thank you so much.

Annie; 8-18-09
When Lori and I talk about Jim, we always seem to go back to the good memories we have of riding the bikes together. Remember the night that was sooooo cold? Coming home from Wrights Farm? I'm sure you remember the other incident when those guys cut me off on the road. Thank God, Jim kept a clear head. You know how I get sometimes.
All I can say is that we're so sorry for your loss and we'll both miss him too. He was a good guy.
You know that if you ever need anything, no matter what, please feel free to dial my number. We'll both be there for you. Our deepest condolences.

Dear Anne, James, Mr & Mrs. Mancini and the whole family,
I was so very sorry to hear about Jimmy. He and I went all through school together from Primrose Hill on up. We played togther as kids and I will always remember the great times we shared. I hope that all of you will find some comfort in knowing that he is no longer suffering. I pray the Lord helps to easy your grief and give you hope to move forward carrying beautiful memories.

To my sweet Jesse James,
You never said you were leaving.
You didn't say goodbye
You were gone before i knew it
And only god knows why
I miss you so much
So often i cry
If my love alone could have saved you
You would never have died
Although you are gone I love you still
In my heart there is a place only you can fill
My heart is broken now that you are gone
But you will never be alone a part of me went with you
The day he called you home
I know you'll be watching from above
I'll love you forever and ever.
love annieoakley

You never said goodbye
You were gone so soon
And only God knows why
I miss you more each day
I love you so much it hurts inside
A million tears I cry
If my love alone could have kept you here
You would never had died
Even though your gone I love you still
No one will fill the place in my heart ment for only you
My heart is broken
You took part of me with you
The day you went home
My life will never be the same
until we meet again
I love you my Dear sweet Jim

Dear Mancini family,
As time has grown long, so has the distance between us. But never has the distance been felt in my heart. I've kept you all in my heart, always. I often think of and speak fondly of my childhood time spent with my cousins, aunt & uncle.
Please know that you all are in my prayers.
Rest in peace, dear cousin Jimmy.

Dear Ann, Jim, Pat, Kathy, Lynn and Bobby,
I am so sorry. I know words can't help much right now, but we all love you and pray for you during this difficult time.
I may have always been one of the "little" cousins, but my memories are full of beautiful family time together. Our trips to Rhode Island to visit you all were a wonderful part of my childhood. Fishing, clamming, boating, grilling, playing Trivial Pursuit, going to Tweets, watching movies, and hanging out with my big cousins in the gameroom.
Jimmy, it is too soon to write this, I don't want to write this...but I mean it nonetheless: Rest in peace, comfort, and eternal happiness. I know you will. Our Lord will take care of you. Our Grandma Mancini will take care of you. We will all be there someday. In the meantime, we miss you and we love you.
Thank you for being part of my childhood.

To my dear extended family .... Jim, Pat, Kathy, Lynn, Bob, James & Annie, My heart is broken. I will always remember the times Jimmy spent with us in PA. The first thing he'd do is give me a BIG hug and a kiss & and say "Hi Auntie". Those many years of memories will remain with me forever. The love he had for his family ran so deep and was so apparent in the way he lived his life. Please know that I am thinking of all of you and praying that God will give you the peace and strength you need to get through this most difficult time. I love all of you very much. Rest in peace, Jimmy. Love, Auntie Sherry

There was a Time
There was a time.....
every other Sunday 4 + 6 made 10
cousins played, laughed, and grew
There was a time.....
cousins and cookouts
softball games and zucchini flowers
There was a time.....
billiards and video games downstairs
a train set and Shultz
There was a time.....
we were cousins
bonds as kids once thought
couldn't be broken
There was a time.....
chances missed
opportunities not taken
time wasted
There was a time.....
we were family
loving, caring, sharing
In this time now....Cousin
May you rest in peace and eternal
happiness with God.
Dear Ann and James, I am very sorry for your loss. I will pray for you and the rest of the family. May God be with you all.

I met and came to know Jim when I worked for Brinks from 1994 to 2003. He was a friendly, humorous guy who was always ready to help in any situation. We had a friendly rivalry going as to whose truck was better, his Ford or my GMC. Although I have not seen him for many years, I will remember him for the good guy that he was. My sincerest condolences to his family.
