G. James Purdy Jr.

A lifelong shipmate and friend, Jim was my roommate at Whiting Field outside of Pensacola, FL where we attended Navy Flight School, he introduced me to my wife of 51 years, and we enjoyed many cold beers, "Sea Stories," and laughs over the years. He will be missed. May he RIP.

Mr Jim as I normally call him, energetic and happy.. I was assigned as a caregiver and I look forward to work everyday because of how welcoming the family is. I still can't get over your death. I hear your voice sometimes "mary" and Mrs Mary will reply "what hun? " May your gentle soul rest in peace. Mrs mary, elsbeth and James accept my sympathy. RIP Mr Jim..

Jim was a classmate from Kindergarten through high school. At birthday parties in our elementary years, he was one of the few boys the girls would invite! Jim made the world a better place. Deep sympathies to his family. May Jim be resting in Peace.

Jim and I grew up on the same street ( along with Bruce Holbrook) and had been friends for 80 years.Since the 1980's we both have lived in the Balt/DC area and had many get togethers (along with Bruce) and trips to see air shows and race cars( Indy) Jim was a great family guy, a great cook and an overall wonderful person. RIP my friend!!

My condolences to Jim's family with fond memories of our days at Wilson High School.

Mary and family, Cretia and my condolences. It is the memories that comfort the heart during these times. Jim was always energetic, engaging, warm, and welcoming...the guy who believed there are no strangers, just friends you haven't met yet. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of loss. Scott

Mary, I have fond memories of spending time with you and Jim, eating at your table, and occasionally acting as Jim's sou chef. I loved Jim's sweet temperament and his generous spirit. I know you, Elsbeth, and James must miss him so much. Sending hugs and love to you all.

Diane, Bob and Families: My sincerest sympathy for the loss of your brother Jim. My condolences also for Jim's wife and family. It was so nice seeing you, Diane, the other day. May Jim rest in eternal peace.
