Not sure what to say?

I just found out that you had passed away today, 11/19/20. So sorry Mrs. Close to hear about your loss.
Your husband was a great comfort and help to me and the adoption of my child who is now 28. I will be forever grateful to him for his assistance. May he rest in peace forever.

Jimmy worked with my father Robert Huntley as harford county magistrate back in the 70s..my father passed in 1976 ..i was working as a mechanic and ran into jimmy around 2008 as he came to the shop i was working at..when he found out who i was he was ecstatic..he began to come around more often with a new story about my dad each time..when my mother passed away back in may jimmy was there for me...I'm gonna miss you jimmy , rest in peace my friend..

I am very sorry to learn of Jim’s passing. Although I only knew him for a short time, Jim was an original who quickly got to the heart of an issue with directness and humor while leaving you with a smile. Susan, I wish you had had more time together in retirement.

We didn’t know Jim for very long, but he was a good man. We are very sorry to hear he has passed on.

Susan & Family, Prayers and my deepest sympathies on your loss. Jimmy was quite a guy, a unique sense of humor but an Angel soul. Rest easy, Jimmy. Your work here is done and now your with the Angels.

Susan, what can I add to what has already been said except that Jim was so unique and special; a true original with a rapier wit and wry sense of the world which he saw in his own quirky way. A great guy and you were lucky to have him for so many happy years. I am so so sorry for your loss. The world is a much less interesting place without Jim. Jane Smerglia Meara

Jim was ONE of a kind! Always stopped to talk and kept me laughing. I am saddened to hear of his passing but blessed to have known him. Sending prayers and healing thoughts to his family.

Susan, I’m so sorry to hear of Jim’s passing. My heart goes out to you and your family. May the fond memories of your life together give you comfort during this time. Consider yourself virtually hugged. As always, Annetta
