I will miss you dearly my friend. A big smile, a great story and a great time were always to be had in your presence. Rest easy, Jimbo. The whole of the North side will always miss you.

To Rob, Dawn and the entire Dooley family Sending my deepest sympathies and prayers to all of you on this tough loss. May Jim Rest In Peace.

Rest Easy. Prayers for your family for comfort and strength.

This one hurts. It´s unbearable. Jim was a real friend and our relationship was filled with gossip, secrets, goals, diets, late night phone calls, repeat stories, a mutual devotion to pizza, support, tough love and of course laughing uncontrollably! I plan to re-read every text and die laughing for years to come. I can´t help but feel mad at you for this massive hole in my heart and will miss our arguments. RP & Lous will never be the same! Love you forever...
