Dear Stan,
I was saddened today when I heard the news of Jim's passing We lost track of one another. I'm sending hugs to you and prayers.
Jim was always so full of life, an excellent nurse with whom I had the pleasure of working with for many, many years. He and you, Stan, were like brothers to me when I needed support, you were both there and helped me get through some difficult parts of my life.
My son Joe sends his sympathy as well. Jim was life, hard to believe his is over, but he touched so very many people. I doubt there are better men anywhere, And to Randy and Scott, your Dad was so very proud of you, spoke often and well of you both.
My sympathy I extend to all of Jim's family. He certainly will be missed.
May G-d Bless

For a number of years, I knew Jim as a great neighbor and fellow gym rat. I shall continue to miss him.... my heart goes out to Stan and Jim's family.
In today's cold, self centered and tumultuous world, we need more people like Jim.

In this very difficult time, my heart is full of sadness for you, Stan, and all the people who loved Jim. He was the true meaning of a good man, being a loving and caring son, brother, spouse, father, grandfather, and last but not least, friend. I hope that everyone who loved Jim will feel Gods arms around them and realize that He is there to give you peace. Thank you, Stan, for being his other half and filling his heart and life with love. May we remain friends always.

Although lighting a candle is just a symbol, the little glow will reflect on the 62 years that I knew I had a precious, loving, and true friend. I know God has stopped your pain and made you whole again. And I know you didn't mind trading all your worldly life to be reunited with your mom and dad and siblings. A love without end.

Dear Stan,
This is truly heartbreaking for me having to say goodbye to a precious friend. I can't imagine how difficult it is for you to say farewell to your soulmate.
In all my life I have never seen such devotion, understanding and love that you and Jimmy shared. It was a gift and a blessing that God gave to you both.
I thank you both for your love and caring towards me for almost 30 years. Plus, all the fun and laughs and craziness.
"It was the best of times....and now, it is the worst of times."
Much love to you Stan, always.
From Martha with great sorrow.............

I will always love Jim as family, as he loved my precious DeeDee. I'm glad she met "her boys" and made us all close after all these years. My memories of Jim will be classy, spunky and fun. I loved listening to him share his memories of special times with my DeeDee. I hope she was there to welcome him into the pearly gates. May they rest in peace. My heart goes out to Stan, who I will continue to embrace with friendship and love, as only Jim would have it. Love and prayers for peace to all who loved him.
