Not sure what to say?

As nice a guy as you'd ever want to know or work with.

Jimmy was a great friend and Francis Albert loved his renditons. Missing you my friend.


Miss him a lot.

Marilyn: You many not remember me but I met you a few times with Jimmy. Jimmy was a very special man. When my wife passed away on 9/11/2008 Jimmy sang at the Barrington Presbyterian Church and Biltmore Country Club. Jimmy had been a Friend for about 15 years. I am so sorry to just hear about his passing. Please accept my sincere condolences to you, your children and family. He will be missed. I have been traveling out of the country for the past month. Best regards, Len Mauceli

From 1979 to 2009(30 years)I saw Jimmy perform around 10 times. He said "My friend Corwin is here" when I saw him at Arnie's
Supper Club in Chicago in 10/92. I thought that was cool. When he signed his autograph for me on his poster he wrote "Corwin you're the best". I thought that was cool.

Dear Damon Family,

Jimmy spent many years singing at the Athens Supper Club in the 70s, when my family came to know him. He always sounded great and had one particular thing that few people have...CLASS. Please accept my condolences,

Marilyn and Family: Sincerest condolences on your great loss. I was shocked when you called me to share the news. He was a good friend and a great human being. He made my feel at home in Chicago during my stint with American Express. He always would say that he never left home without it...his Platinum Card. I can hear him singing with Frank, Dean and Sammy.

Nancy joins me in offering our condolences. Our thoughts are prayers are with you.

Love.....

Jimmy Damon was a dear friend and colleague. I loved working with Jimmy on the many promotions and charity events that we did together over our 40 year friendship. All you had to do is ask Jimmy and he would be there for you. Jimmy was like family. Jimmy was my late, great Aunt Lila Koplan's favorite singer and Jimmy sang at her funeral. Somewhere Jimmy Damon is singing with the angels and swigging on a Jack Daniels. God Bless.
