Our deepest condolences are extended to Paula and Jim’s family. He was a great guy and good friend who will be surely missed by all. Jim had a great sense for the car business and treated everyone with the highest respect and integrity. His sense of humor and kindness/generosity to his friends was without equal.

I began working for Mr McHugh in December of 1978 up until his retirement in 1995 and for his son Harlan McHugh up until january 2004 when then the dealership was sold. I feel i was one of the luckiest persons in the world to have worked so many years of my career as a technician for Mr McMugh and Harlan. It was truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'll always remember the smile on his face,the southern accent,his generosity but most of all the time he always made to go into the shop and...

My thoughts go out to the McHugh family at their time of loss, I had gotten to know Jim and Harlen over the years and through it all I felt a bond of respect was formed.

I shall forever cherish my good fortune of meeting you shortly after your arrival in Los Gatos.
You enriched my life in so many ways and I will be forever grateful. The wonderful years of luncheons, dinners, laughter, golf, trips to Hawaii and Europe and the honor of being your friend are memories of great joy.
No one has ever equaled your love for life.
May you rest in peace.

Mr. McHugh will be greatly missed. Having had the opportunity to spend time with him during my employment at Lincoln Mercury, I found him to be extremely fun-loving and shared his passion for wines (though I am not nearly as as knowledgable as him). Much love to the family and his host of friends!
