I was privileged to work with Jim for many years at Stone Hill Elementary. He was one of the best principals that I ever worked with. Always professional, understanding, calm and a great advocate for kids, parents and staff. My condolences to all those who knew him well.

Mr. Cofone was the principal of Stone Hill Elementary when I was there. I remember him as a caring, patient man who knew all of us by name. My heartfelt condolences to his loved ones.

With deepest sympathy to Elaine, and family. Jim was a great educator who was dedicated to his faculty and students when he was principal. I was fortunate to teach at both Gladstone and Stonehill and I learned a great deal from Jim. God Bless you Jim.

I always loved working for Mr. Cofone at Gladstone School. As an administrator, he was fair, a good listener, and had a sense of humor. The world has lost a good man far to soon.
