James A. Rovelli

Jim, you gave it a good long fight, not wanting to leave the love of your life Virginia and her incomparable devotion. RIP

May god bless Jim and his family moving forward. I had the pleasure to see Jim sing at Adirondack redwing games- the national anthem with my dad. He was wonderful. He is singing now in heaven.

My connection to the Rovelli family is doubtful but I well remember Jim and his elder brother from their births when I lived in Whitehall. Angelo's cobbler shop was two doors from the hardware store then-managed by my father, Bill Williams, and where I sometimes swept floors and did other odd jobs for my dad. Among the tasks dad set for me was sometimes going over to the cobblery to drop off or pick up shoes or to make a small purchase of something needed. It was a wonderful, full emphasis...

I knew Ginny through Dr. Francomano who delivered my son 40 years ago. I knew Jim through my ex father-in-law Doc Prendergast who was exalted ruler at the Elks Lodge many years ago. My sympathies to Ginny and the family.

My sincerest thoughts are with you all.

I worked at the Queensbury Hotel while Jim played in the Lantern Inn. So many great memories . Prayers for his family

My sincere condolences to all of Jim´s family and friends. Spent many a night at the Lantern Inn enjoying Jim´s talent. Whenever Jim was playing my parents and all of their friends made it a point to not only enjoy the music but dance the night away. A truly good and special man.

Sorry for the family's loss.
