Read MoreI always looked forward to talking with Jim. He liked to talk about his children and grand children.
I will always remember celebrating St Patricks day with him..... whether or not it was on St. Pattys day.
He was a kind and generous man. I will miss him.

I have known Jim all my life and am so saddened to hear of his passing. Although I hadn't seen him in many years, I was lucky enough to get a big bear hug from him at my mother's 80th birthday party this past March and he seemed to be the same good-humored robust person I remembered as a kid growing up. So sad to hear this news and much love to his wife Jan and all his children. Rest in peace you big Irishman, you were one of a kind.
