Not sure what to say?

I will miss Jim very much. He was fun and pleasant to be around, and good humored, and I have fond memories of my visits to his place in Boston and Rockport on different holidays. I have made a donation in his memory to ProjectBread. I wish Sharon, Michael, and the rest of the family the best.

Some of my favorite memories of Jim are of him smiling, cocktail in hand, sitting at a table when family visited or with friends on his birthday. I loved chatting with him, hearing his quiet jokes, and dancing with him on the one or two occasions he asked (though I never figured out how to let him lead). He was always so kind and welcoming to me and it meant a lot. I'm so sorry for your loss. He was wonderful. Love to you all.

One of the nicest and gentle classmates at St. David's. My last memory was jitterbugging at our class reunion. Peace to you and yours. Joyce (Brancaleone) Hiegel

I´m so sorry for the loss of this wonderful man. I´m a nurse and worked at Southwood Hospital in the OR/Recovery Rm and we were fortunate to see him frequently. He was the quintessential gentleman, a kind and sweet man. The world is less without him.

We were saddened to learn of Jim´s passing. We knew him from the Paulist Center Boston. We sat near him and Laura in the balcony during Mass. We recall his dedication to his daughter Laura. Our deepest sympathies and prayers to his family. Rest in peace Jim.
