Not sure what to say?

I was very saddened when I went to chestnut hill today and found out James had passed. He use to work with my dad at Spalding. And then when I started at Chestnut Hill in 2019 he would tell me stories over a bag of chips. James you will be missed by many. Rest in peace my friend. Sending my condolences to the family...

It brings tears to my eyes that such a very fine human being that I had the pleasure of working with at Spalding has passed. As others have written, Jim was a very special person at Spalding as a golf ball foreman. He had such a care and concern for his workers and was very respectful to every person. He agreed with me when I told him that every person in our golf ball production area had a "story" and that showed me how thoughtful he was. I can also see his thoughtfulness in the memories...

Our sympathy and prayers to all the family. While my memories of years past are what keep me going in the present, I do remember how my parents (Charles/Carolyn) spoke highly of you all in our early years on Cass Street in Springfield, Mass. As you know, time flies much too quickly but we are grateful for the moments we share with friends and loved ones. I trust Jim will watch over you and his special love will remain in your hearts forever. God bless.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Jimmy was one of the nicest people at Spaulding´s. Kind considerate gentleman, I enjoyed working with him. We had many a good conversation about life and his family. I believe Vincent follows in his footsteps as example of his father. Deepest sympathy to Jimmy´s family and friends. Rest in Peace Jimmy, you earned it. May the love of Jesus surround your whole family .

Jim was a pleasure to know and to work with. From my early 20s to late 40s he was always willing to help you. Spalding could be a challenging place to work as he knew well but he always made it a better place with a warm smile and a kind word. God Bless you Jimmy.

My sincere sympathies to all of you. I have many good memories of our "adventures " as we navigated through some very interesting camping trips. Your family is in my thoughts & prayers. Christine (Booth) Ferguson

Terri, Brian, Vinny and Families, Our sincere condolences on the loss of Brud. He was a wonderful brother-in-law, and Uncle. He was such a kind, and lovely person. We will miss him too. At this time, we hope you are somewhat comforted by the love, and support from family/friends. Love Linda, and Kathleen

Please know that our prayers and thoughts are with the entire Simonds family. May James rest in peace with our Savior. Kevin & Rose Kelly
