I love you all,and I am thinking of you during this hard time.

Dear Debbie, Kelly & Sean,
Jim was one of the first welcoming and friendly people I met when I started at Framingham State 26 years ago. I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing. He was always smiling and made me laugh and was patient with my computer related struggles.
I am so sorry for your loss. I send special sentiments to Sean whom I had at the Child Care Center days and in the Residence Life Office in his college days.
Sincerely,
Laurie Carr

Love and prayers from our family to yours. Jim was a very kind man to our entire family as a neighbor, a coach, and a fellow parent, and always just wonderful to Josh, who refers to him as 'practically a 3rd parent to me.' We are all heart broken for the loss of such a nice man.

Debbie,
I am so sorry for your family during this time of loss. Sometimes words just can't express what I feel, but I truly want you to know I am praying for peace for all your family.
Love,

Debbie and Family
I met Jim back in the 80's when I would find him sitting on the bench in front of Whittemore Library at lunch. I would always stop and say hello and he always had a positive outlook on life and would share stories and brag about his kids. That was a fun time. It was a pleasure working with him for so many years! My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Sincerely, Barbara Bloom

Debbie, I am so sorry for your loss. I ahve so many fond memmories of working with Jim at Framingham State. However, the greatest times where the ones when we played softball for Easter Seals all those years ago. We had some fun times. I will surely miss him. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
