Funny how I was thinking of him not to long ago. One of many talks was when he telling about one of his customers. He said he got a call. The person was rather upset. He continue on explaining what he had said. Jim he said, the steam she no come. Of course we had a good laugh. . Think of you often. Marge Rose

Dear Barbara, I am so sorry for your loss. I meet Jim at my mothers many years ago. We became friends over the years. Mostly doing work on the furnace and things like that. He would tell me about you and your family. He was proud of them. We had a lot of laughs throughout the years. He also said that you’d better me there for Sunday meal or else you’d better have a darn good reason you can’t make it. I enjoyed his company through the years. May he Rest In Peace. Sincerely,Marge & Bruce Rose

My deepest condolences to the Halloran family! Jim was the first person I called if I had any kind of mechanical problem and he always had the answer. We worked together a lot over the years. It was always a relief when Jim showed up and helped us out. I’ve been missing him ever since I moved to Florida.
