Having gone through school with Jim from first grade, and seeing him on occasion later in life, he never changed. He was always a sweet, kind, gentleman. We are all shocked and very sad. Rest In Peace. We will miss you. As the Mercy nuns would often say to you, "good job, James".

Kathy, Linda, Stephanie, We were so sorry to hear of Jim's death. I know you will miss him so much. I remember hearing Aunt Grace tell of the wonderful trips she shared with you and how Jim always took the best care of her. I hope those wonderful memories help you through this difficult time.
