Not sure what to say?

I will always remember Jim as one of my instructors at Saint Francis in Hartford, Ct. I moved to Schenectady briefly and wanted to work at his hospital but there were no openings. He helped me greatly as a student and we were sad to see him leave St. Francis.

Alana and family,
I was saddened to hear of Jim's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm a 2000 grad of ND-BG and was really inspired by the work Mr. Merryweather was doing for the Alumni. Thank you to his family for sharing him with us--even though we never met! You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Alana and family,
As I return home and read the eloquent testimonies shared by so many of Jim's friends and admirers, It stikes me that his influence was deep and sincere for each person who knew him. His passion for life, his love of family, and his respect for all, stems from his self respect.
May the good Lord forever hold him in the palm of his hand.

Thoughts of Jimmy bring a smile to my face...

Dear Alana and family,
I was heart broken to hear the news about Jim's passing. I have wonderful memories working for Jim at Ellis, and my friendship with all of you. He was a good and loving person. I will cherish all the good times we had. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers remain with the entire Merryweather family in this sad time of loss. I was blessed to meet Jim at one of Lisa's great parties and thought he was a wonderful person. I know all of your wonderful memories and the never ending love he will be sending from heaven will help get you through this tough time. God bless you all.

So very sorry to hear about your loss. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers.

I light this candle in honor of Jim merryweather. may he rest in peace
