I will always remember Jim as my closest cousin as kids, when I lived in New Bedford. I haven't been in contact since we were in High School. I'm saddened to hear of his passing. Bob Reddy, his uncle Frank's son.

To the Reddy family,
I will always remember Jim and his love of Boston Sports. I miss his stories of "Fenway" and "The Garden." Jim always brought friendliness and cherfulness to everyone around him. My heart and prayers are with Jim's family. He will be missed by all.

Dear Meridyth and Mac,
So sorry to hear about your dad. We had some great times together. I'll always remember him as a honest person who loved his family very much. God was probably having problems finishing one of his crossword puzzles and sent for Jimbo.He is in a better place now.May he rest in peace.
