James William Coakley

I will always cherish the moments we shared especially the night we went to see Fame and then we hit The Frontier and dance until they closed.
He taught me how to make meatloaf with rice.
He was a great person and an even better friend. Will miss you.

Dear Jan and loved ones, Our thoughts, prayers, and love are with you all as you live into this loss of your beloved James today and in the coming days and months. Know that we all send our deepest sympathies in your loss. In peace and loving prayers, Renee Dewhurst and the Daughters of the Heart of Mary of the Marian Center Reunion and US Province

I never thought that it would be this soon that I'd have to go without seeing you again. I yelled so loudly when I'd found out that you passed away that I'd startled the nurse and the receptionist lol. I know you would laugh at that. We have had so many laughs together. Words cannot replace all the years we'd seen each other every single Monday and sometimes more often. You rest now my friend and I'm glad you're now at peace. I won't say goodbye, I'll just say I'll be seeing you... To your...

Janet,
I wish you peace and comfort during this time of loss. You are in my prayers.

Cheryl, Jan, and family members all, My prayer is with you this morning. When I read the news in the paper, I knew I felt like I knew this handsome man who appeared, not only to love all creation, but also to care for it with his very own hands, all of it. Now I know why and remember your parents, you, and all I do not know. Your family matters to all of us, even if we never saw you in person. You held our hands, when we didn't know it. Thank you. peace, Sister Jane Morrissey, ssj

Jimmy was definitely one of a kind. Whether we were dancing, playing those long Monopoly games at the dining room table, playing roller derby on ice skates, watching Roots and the Olympics, or frying up potatoes for a snack after school, he was wholeheartedly in it. Words can't express the sadness I feel at hearing of his passing. My sincere condolences to the family.

So sorry for your loss. I remember Jimmy in chestnut junior high school. He was a happy, go lucky kid. Fly high with the angels
