James A. "Jack" Coffaro

Jim was a "constant" name in our family back in the 60's. He was my young brother (Steve Joy) boss, friend, hero and mentor. This friendship lasted until my brother passed away in 1996 - and Jim ushered his casket. Jim was the utmost gentleman. Always courteous, friendly and with a quick smile. In fact, to the end, Jim showed my sister and I much courtesy and kindness during my brother's funeral...never to be forgotten by us. We all loved and greatly respected this man.

Miss you every day dad I love you

Hey dad thank you for the best gift growing up ,thank you for my brother and all you and mom did for us I will truly miss you I love you dad

Dorothy, Bruce, Ric, and family,
Having just recently heard of Jim’s passing, I’ve taken a moment to reflect on this news. I think of all the times he would joke with us kids and “flip our noses” with his finger. He was the man to go to when our cars were broken and he was a good friend to my dad.
You were all blessed to have him for so long and I hope your loving memories of him bring you peace and joy.
May God bless you all
With love and deep sorrow for your loss,

To the Coffaro family. I was lucky enough to have Dorothy and Jim as neighbors for 30 plus years. My husband however grew up the family as neighbors. The stories Anthony would tell about growing up with the boys. Mr. C would always have the best stories about all of them and their shenanigans. Later we would look forward to our annual Christmas parties. Mr. C. will be deeply missed. My sincere condolences to all of the family.

Bruce, Patti and family,

Bruce Rick and family (friends) My deepest condolence. Jimmy inspired me as a young man (16) when I worked for him at his gas station on Goodman St.
What a great teacher he was. I'll never forget the values he taught me, I really loved working for him. We went snowmobiling, motorcycling and drag racing together. I can say He did it his way. What ever he did , he did it right. He'll surely be missed by all.
