Not sure what to say?

I think my mom looks at Jim as a caring big brother. One who would watch over her on the way to school as a kid. For me he went from steadying hand in my financial matters to life partner in that and in my family, as well . No higher praise could I give than to say in character he was mild, generous, and humble. RIP JIm

I just learned today from Lynn Nicholas that Jimmy died. He was my brother's friend and oh so old at 18 to my 13 years back in 1953. I was his double's partner in a tennis tournament at Great Island on Cape Cod. Jimmy was a natural athlete, graceful, coordinated, agile. What I remember most, though, was his kindness, encouragement, and patience when I was clearly not in his league. We won!

Friend and admirer of his life and family and loyal member of The Coaching Club. He is missed. To Joan whose kindness I remember and send my admiration.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I knew Jim as NJ Banking commissioner where he did a fine job in public service. He was an engaging , very friendly person whose company I enjoyed. Later I had the honor of serving with his brother Nick, who is another splendid person, as co chair of Governor Tom Kean's Transition Committee. My condolences to the Brady family.

Jim was a caring man and an example of how to always keep that foremost in ones heart.

So sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed his pleasant smile and demeanor at trustee meetings. He will be missed by many.
