James Mulholland Obituary

Mulholland, James "Pipi"
passed away on April 5, 2011. Jim lived a good many years but not enough for those who loved him. He was born July 20, 1930 but it wasn't until he crashed a wedding and met the love of his life, Mareann, his bride of 52 years, that he started on a magical lifelong journey. The family moved across the country as he moved up in the corporate world to vice-president of sales. Along the way they developed more friendships and threw more parties for no reason than anyone could ever imagine. The doors to their house were open to absolutely everyone. Jim also leaves behind his bestest friend and brother Ernie. They weren't twins but they sure acted like it. He loved to act and received awards for his performances in community theatres. He was devoted to his faith. He was preceded in death by his son, Joey, and sister Rita. He left in his wake three children he could not have loved more or been more proud of - Jay (Joy), Lisa (Gary Kula), and Tim (Leigh). His seven grandchildren loved him as "Pipi". Jim, we're sure you're already busy making new friends and reuniting with old ones. Services April 11, 10 a.m. St. Elizabeth Seton Church.
