Not sure what to say?

I had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy on several occasions, he was genuinely a very nice man.

He was a natural actor and a joy to watch

The warmth of Jimmy's smile and voice brought joy, laughter and great stories to My Actor's Workshop a few years ago. He would run his movies on Sundays at the Bonita Community Center. Jimmy will always be a bright light in our hearts. Ms. D. "Creative Art Of Acting Workshop"

One day I was sick and stayed home, mom let me watch TV and I watched a movie about a kid, who was editor of the high school newspaper. It was very funny and I loved it! It was Henry Aldrich, Editor. Years later was able to find to find it and other Henry Aldrich series. Liking the actor, there were other movies available so I bought those. James Lydon was an actor who was an actors actor. True talent

Mr. Lydon lived a long life doing what he loved acting. He will live on in his movies. May God comfort the family at this time.

A great actor with such a long running career. Sincere sympathies to the Lydon family, may God be with you all in your time of loss.

I just say him recently on a classic western. No matter what the genre’, he could play it. I can’t remember the number the number of times I have watched Life With Father-a true classic. We may forget the actors as they age and pass on but they are forever preserved in the classic films they give us. May our Heavenly Father bring comfort to the family and friends.

Jimmy Lydon brought joy and entertainment to millions and enhanced every film he was in to perfection.

Sorry for your loss... A life well lived... May you seek comfort in the love of your heavenly caring Father.
