Not sure what to say?

So sorry Aunt Liz if you need anything just call me Jim was nice man. Love ya Rosemary Shinn Gorczynski

Aunt Liz and family, We are very sorry to hear of the passing of Jim. He is home where you will one day be reunited. Until that day comes you will have your very own guardian angel watching over you. I'm sure he is watching over you and proud of you. May he rest in peace. God bless.

Rest in peace, Jim your kindness and wisdom will stay with me forever.

In loving memory of my "Favorite Uncle". We will love and miss you always.

Jim was my friend since 1980. We talked sports especially baseball. I always looked forward to him pulling up in my driveway. I will miss him.
