Read MoreI think of Jim often. The tributes written here are a testament to the many lives Jim’s kindness touched during his much too short life. Rest In Peace Jim. I miss our dinners at Perkins and Friendly’s after serving 7pm Mass at St Mary’s!

Jim was my closest friend while we were at King's College. He was a great person. A bright light has gone out.

It's been over a year since we lost Jim. He is among the angels now. I met Jim while attending King's College and we sung in the men's chorus. We became instant friends. He was senior and I was a freshman and he helped with through my first year in college. I'll always remember his warmth, his sensitivity, his kindness and his friendship. Jim was a gentleman, and his smile and marvelous sense of humor brightened the lives of everyone. Jim was taken from us, all too soon, yet his spirit...

Hearing from his brother Ned and reading other's comments, it certainly sounds like Jim left the world a better place. I wish I had met him. Peace to all who are affected by his passing.

Dear Ed, Mark, Bob and Ned,
We just heard of Jim's death and are truly saddened this event. The times we spend with him were on impromptu visits to Wilkes-Barre often to chat and share camaraderie with the entire family, ski, and have a quick game of ice hockey on a local pond. Jimmy was a very kind person who will be truly missed but now rests in the arms of our Lord.

I was shocked and saddened upon hearing of Jim's passing on. I knew Jim from working with him at Tobyhanna. Jim always had a smile on his face, was always kind to everyone, and was just a great person. I would go months without seeing him, but when we ran into each other Jim made it seem like we had just spoken the day before. RIP jimmy, you will be missed.
