To the Family and Friends of Jimmy,
I was shocked to see his obituary in the Town & Country newspaper today. I knew Jimmy from school and had seen him many times over the years when I ate at the Pennsburg Diner. He was always cheerful and quick with a smile. Both my mom and I will greatly miss his presence. The diner will not be the same. Our thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathies extend to his family and friends.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Family and everyone who is grieving the loss of a Friend. Jimmy was certainly very well know by most in the Upper Perkiomen Community. The words "Gentle Giant" I think explain Jimmy's very unique personality. Jimmy spent a lot of time with our Family at Holidays, going swimming, and Family trips. He was definitely considered part of the Family. He will be greatly missed. Rest in peace, my friend!

Jimmy, Rest in PEACE bud. Always remember you flagging me down to go to a call, you were always excited. Jimmy was a true volunteer, cause Sta. 65 was his home.

Jimmy.. Your smile, your laughter and your genuine kindness are going to be missed more than you would have ever imagined. I, for one, can say that I am going to miss seeing you take your little walks to McDonald's and our visits at the Diner, because I already do. God took you way too soon. I pray that you felt no pain, and that you are now enjoying your days in an even greater place. Until we meet again, Rest easy my friend. :)
