Not sure what to say?

Just read about Jim's death. We're so sorry to hear it.

It's been decades since I saw Jimmy, but I can picture him vividly. Laurie, Kathy, and Bobbie, you have my heartfelt sympathy (and my apologies if I've misspelled your names).

Some of my most treasured childhood memories are the Ridge Road sing-a-longs with Jim at the piano. Along with Kathy and 'Bobbie' and other neighborhood kids I sang, trying to match Jim's enthusiastic playing. It simply couldn't be done. Best wishes to the family.

Lori dear,
I will miss Jim's smiling face at the CSO.......we go back a long,long way....he was the same wonderful man in his later years as he was a young man at the Lab School. My sympathy to you and your family

The entire Duboe family sends prayers, thoughts and well wishes to Delores and to all of Jimmy's family. We will miss his warmth, great intelligence, creativity and enthusiasm and great sense of humor that I hold fond memories of in our childhood years. He will be very much missed by the Coopermans as well. He is probably watching from above and laughing with our late, great Uncle Miles at this very moment! May the good Lord grant peace to Jimmy and his loved ones.

The few times we spent with Jim were so special. He knew so much about so many things. We enjoyed his delightful sense of humor. We are thinking of you all and are very saddened with the news.

I remember Jim very well as my Dad worked for Dave at Bradley.

Karen and I truly valued our relationship with Jim. I use the term relationship because Jim was much more to me (us) than a business partner and dear friend. We miss him dearly.
