Not sure what to say?

I met Jim in April of 1968. He has always been remembered though we took different paths i never forgot him. I just lost my brother Jan 14 ...I can't believe now Jim has passed . HE was an awsome guy.

I wish to extend my condolences to the family of Jim Coyne. Jim was my Company Commander and a great friend when I was in the 210th Armor at the New Scotland Avenue Armory.

I will always remember the golf tournament in Troy. He said “you just made my day“. He was always happy and smiling even in the absolute best and worst of times. Rest in peace my friend.

Worked with Jim at GE in my younger years. He was a genuinely nice person and a pleasure to work with. He is gone too soon! Rest in peace sir!

Jim and I served together in the 1-210th Armor, he was the Battalion Operations officer and I was one of the Bn master gunners. We worked hand in hand helping to train tank crews. I miss his sense of humor and laugh. He was an exceptional leader and a fine officer. I will see you on the green Sir!

My husband, Col. Brian Noonan who passed away 8 years ago was a great friend of Jim’s. They spent a lot of time working, talking and just hanging out at the 210th. Great memories and lasting friendships were made there. My condolences and prayers to his family.
