Jimmy was one of the big kids on the block. He looked out for the rest of us. He was always good natured. 'Served our country in veitnam. Peace jimmy.

I remember you as a young boy growning up in Astoria. You served our country and made your family proud. You will be missed dearly by all who loved you. May God Bless you, for the fine man you were, and keep you always close. You will remain in my prayers always.

To my Uncle James who loved me and has taught me no matter what, family is the most important. For my daughter Aria, who you loved without even meeting, I will ensure your memory and love will live on with her forever. Rest in peace Uncle James...we love you.

You were a great uncle--someone who loved his family, and served his country. You will always be alive in my memory, and in spirit. Much love, Denise

I took care of all your last wishes and will miss you always--you left us so fast, we did not have a chance to say goodbye.
I know you are resting peacefully.
We loved you well....Your sister, Barbara
