Not sure what to say?

Back in the day, Jim and I were great friends at St Peter Chanel HS. When I was in the hospital having my oldest daughter, he of course came to see me. I asked him why he was wearing his collar. He answered, "I get free parking." Typical Jim. I sure
miss him. My daughter used to call him Jimmy Go Night, she couldn't say Mc Goldrick. Rest in Peace, Jimmy Go Night.

Prayers to the McGoldrick Family.

I remembered Fr. McGoldrick when I was a freshman at St. Peter Chanel HS in 1993-94, Fr McGoldrick was the Assistant Principal and Dean of Academics at the time. Fr. McGoldrick was a very friendly man and with Fr. James Lacrosse both men were very friendly

Let Perpetual Light Shine upon him and may he rest in peace

I knew Jim McGoldrick in the Marist Novitiate on Staten Island, and at Marist College in Washington, D.C. He was a good friend and dedicated to his vocation I was sorry to read of his passing. Robert Hurley

Sorry for your loss

Your smile, your sense of humor, your conversation and your company will all be missed. You'll be joining Rick and Tom, so we know you'll have buddies. God bless you with eternal memory, Jim. You'll be in our hearts forever.

Father Jim was the perfect balance for a priest of God - intellect, public speaker, teacher and humorist. The people of Wheeling, West Virginia, are less without him. Requiescat in pace, Pater. Peace.

Father was a great teacher and he actually made class fun. One of the nicest people I ever met and he will be missed.

Father James will be truly missed be blessed us at ST Rapheals Chuch with his charm and wonderful good hummer, he loved the music of the Choir. and He used to come to our Singalongs with we played on Once a month on a friday evening. when he used to see my daughter Alyssa they always hugged each other. God Bless his soul.

I had the honor of learning from Fr. McGoldrick. I have always wondered where he ventured too. My heart is saddened at his passing. He is now in a better place.
