Carol,

My condolescences to you and your family on your loss.

Kerri and Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time.

Dear Carol and Family,
I was saddened to hear of Jimmy's passing. I have great memories of Jimmy and you too Carol. When I reminisced about Greenpoint with others your names would often come up. He will be missed, not only by you and his immediate family, but your extended "Greenpoint Family" is diminished by this loss. Grace and I want you too know you are in our prayers.

Dear Carol and Family,
So sad to hear of Jimmy's passing. I hold great memories of Jimmy. Such a good guy from a great family. My thoughts are with you and your children. Jeri Fallon (Westhampton Beach, New York)

Condolences from my heart to Carol and family. It was many years ago in Greenpoint that I knew Carol Smyth and Jimmy O'Keefe - but I still hold many happy thoughts of our friendship and times spent together. Jimmy will remain a great guy in my memories of him. Love sent to all he held so dear.
