I can't imagine losing a brother...
My heart goes out to you, Mary Therese, Johnny, Michael, Paul and Mark. At least Jimmy's with your parents now, and at peace.
He was a good man. My thoughts and prayers have been with you AND Jimmy's children.

Over the last 50 years, I have been able to call Jim my friend. I know how proud of his family he was as I got a "Volpi Update" everytime I talked to him. During his illness, he was still so positive and retained his humor. When things seemed insurmountable, he talked about great memories and fun times in his life. I knew he wasn't feeling good when he sent me a picture of himself two months ago, so not Jimmy. How could I forget THAT face!
He is missed. I will always remember him fondly.

Jim, thank you for your friendship through the years..... blessings are now yours!!!
My heartfelt condolences to all of Jim's family.
Wishing you all God's love, comfort & peace.
You have wonderful memories to embrace you for a lifetime.

JIm..you have fought the good fight..you have completed the race....you have kept the faith ! We worked together 1st at D&D Sales Coors---then Front Range Coors and finally at CDC Coors Denver. Through all the years we remained close friends and once you told me that I was more like a brother to you than just a friend. I always treasured that memory and will continue to ! You will be missed by all that knew you and that is an endless list. Our Heart goes out to Jimmy, Lisa, Johnny and Katherine and all the Volpi brothers and sister !

Dear Jimmy
Miss you very much. Always thought that if I was in a foxhole I would want you beside me. Wish I could be there.
