Long time co-worker and a wonderful kind man. We shared a love for fishing and always enjoyed sharing photos and stories of our fishing adventures. He will surely be missed by friends and family. May God comfort his family duing their time of sadness - and may all their memories going forward be of the wonderful times they had while he was here.

I have so many fond memories of this wonderful human being. I don't believe that there is any person who worked at Western Electric/AT&T/Lucent that was not touched by this man's wonderful spirit. The world has lost a angel but heaven has gained a new one. God Bless you Jim Cavey. And all of my sympathies to the family. God Bless.

We met Jim for the first time at our wedding reception and he told my husband ,"If the Dinunzio girl you are marrying today is anything like my wife, Sharon, you will be a happy man" We are so sorry to hear of his passing for he was a wonderful person, always had a smile on his face and a kind word for everyone. He will be greatly missed.
