Dear Jim and Maria's families, I was so sorry to hear about your Dad. And your Mom, although I didn't know about your Mom until later. I will always remember and cherish how much your parents did for me when I graduated from high school. You have my deepest sympathy for the great loss of your parents. They were wonderful people and I will always remember them. Sincerely, Linda

Mr. Marzo lived out his final days at Beechwood and was a very pleasant and kind man to take care of. I will miss hearing him call out "hey babe" to all of the staff, man or woman. I also had the pleasure in taking care of his wife several years ago. Sending many prayers and comfort to the family.

I am so sorry to discover this beautiful and kind friend has past on. Jimmy loved to dance and we often did together. I´ve missed him since Shadow Lounge closed, and therefore no longer saw him. I´m happy I could share a few words. Rest peacefully Jimmy.
