Happy Birthday Jim G.
You are missed but you live on through your brilliant legacy of work you left with us. You were the best there was and nobody has or will ever come close. Rest in Paradise
February 23, 2019
You are so so very missed each and every day by so many people. You're calmness, you're solutions to every day problems, your smile and of course your laugh. I admire you and your generosity to so many people who were struggling and in need and you never looked for the credit or stood in lime light you stayed anonymous. That my friend is a giving soul and a precious human being. I'm sure you are extremely proud of your son and his success walking in your footsteps. You're daughter is absolutely beautiful and growing up fast which you know by continuously watching over them both. We all miss and love you feel free to pop in here and there .... ♡♡

Very few have the ablilty to become your friend without ever having met in person...it was as if you knew him your entire life...from the neighborhood...that's a gift
Larger than life !!! What a pleasure left us...to enjoy a legacy of film and interviews both as an actor and as a person
Hemingwayesque in life ....leaving a legacy for future generations to come
God Bless all

This past June was 5 years that James had passed. He truly was an incredible actor who was so talented. I continue to watch The Sopranos because it just doesn't get old and keeps Jim's spirit alive. Continue to rest easy and peacefully Tone. GOD Bless.

They say "the good die young". It's very true in this instance. I will never forget meeting you in New York in 2005 on Broadway after your theatre performance. You will always be the best. RIP

You have made you're presence known on several occasions to many at different times. You have to be amazingly proud of your son. He has had so many accomplishments and continues to share love & kindness to all who come into his life. God Bless all

a rather late entry but my own life was crazy with too much at once. James, you gave us laughter, seriousness and a "pretty accurate" of a Mafia Family. However I had seen a different side of you in a movie where you're a totally compassionate man. May your children know that you were deeply loved by millions, but they were your true and forever in your heart. "Infinity times infinity" one day when we all gather home together and enjoy the beauty of heaven created by the one and only, may you rest in peace and know family, friends and the millions of many who saw you as a great human being. God Bless.

I mean James Gandolfini was an actor. His job was to show up, say some words, take his money and then go home. But, God, could he say those words and punctuate them with an acting talent which was second to none. I too lost my parents at their young ages so I was especially saddened for his son to hear of James' demise. Although I was older, and a big guy in size, like James, when I lost my parents, the loss to me was immense. As a result I feel especially sorry for his son who lost his dad at such a tender age for both of them. R.I.P. T.

Although you have been physically gone for a year your spirit lives on and is felt in many ways. We all love & miss you.

Mr. Gandolfini's work on stage is nothing compared to what his life accomplishments were off stage. You are missed deeply throughout the world, especially NJ.
December 20, 2013
I want your family to know that at this time of the holiday season we are thinking of them and the emptiness they are going thru. For that I ask God to watch over your family & you. In the years ahead it will get a tiny bit easier, but I know you won't ever forget him. Much Love to all.

May you look down on all your loved ones and fans and see how wonderful of a person you are, you'll rest in peace! I hope to someday visit where you are layed to rest and bring you flowers and much missed loved!
