I am saddened beyond belief of Jimmy's passing. I had been thinking of him over the past few months and wondered how I might get in touch with him. I searched him on Facebook and ultimately found his obituary. I had no idea he had moved on. . . I worked with Jim starting in 1987 in New Canaan. He was a cherished friend although time had passed since we last saw one another. He always will be in my heart as he has been since the first day we met.
My condolences to his brothers. He always talked about his family with me and the good times growing up....the singing together.
I am so sad; I wish I had known. God Bless you Jimmy....Heaven now gets to enjoy your sparkling sense of humor.

I met Jim when I moved to New Canaan, as a Junior in high school, and we became very good friends. Fun times riding around town with him in his MG (I think it was green). I then lost track of Jim for 40 years until we met up again prior to our 40th high school reunion. We instantly became very good buddies again and frequently got together with other "old" high school friends. We had fun times and lots of laughs. I will miss you, Jim. Rest in peace.

Hi, I've sponsored this Guest Book for Jimmy online for the next year ('til 10/2/11), and am hoping more people will contribute memories and photos of him for his family and friends to remember and print out. Thank you.

Jimmy was nicknamed "moon" in college.We met in grade 9 homeroom at NCHS. A Best friend who will not grow old, or get social security, relax on a beach, or write a great book. He was almost there. A terrible loss. RIP Cats

I met Jimmy the evening before we were to register for law school. For nearly 37 years he was a dear friend. We are all richer for his erudite comments, his sense of humor, his passion. And now poorer for his absence.
