Jimmy Pistone Obituary

Jimmy was the best brother we could have ever asked God for, he was the best son my Parents could have ever Prayed for, Jimmy enjoyed Yard work with his Father, riding the tractor, mowing the grass, taking care of Smoke his dog named after his favorite Race Car Driver Tony Stewart, Jimmy passed away and went to be with Our Lord on the 20th day which Tony Stewart's Race Car number is 20, how odd that was, when Dad told me the date I could not believe it, your number was 20 all along baby in many ways. Jimmy on every Sunday he would put his Tony Stewart Hat on and his T-shirt or Sweat Shirt and hang a huge Flag out the window that he had from the Tony Stewart Fan Club, he never got into following any Drivers but his Father Tiger Tom Pistone when he use to race, than Tony Stewart came along into NASCAR and was also from the North and drove like our father did, than from the very first time he saw him race no other driver was better than Tony Stewart in Jimmys eyes. He was the true diehard fan, his office and condo was immaculate with 3 rooms that had Tomy Stewart tags, photos diecast cars, you name it he had it!!! Jimmy would do anything for anyone, he was always his Father and mothers "little boy" no matter how old he was his mother always called him her baby, his smile was contagious, he was so much fun and would make you laugh and cry at the same time, he was my best friend, I am so very lost without him, so is his sister Rosemary, we were the three musketeers, we cried together we prayed together and we were together when he died, I just want everyone to know that Jimmy is the best Son, brother that anyone could have ever wanted. Every where we look he is there, his Dad made sure he was buried in his Tony Stewart Racing Hat and T-shirt and Leather Jacket, Jimmy we miss you honey and Mommy is so sick without you, she misses you so much sweetie and Daddy just sits in his office chair and looks outside to see if he can see you one more time, Jimmy we will all be together again soon, we will be joined with you and Rose, Tommy, Jr., Johnny, John Thomas and Santo, just make sure every step you take you take it slow so we can follow you and be together again. Our family will never ever be the same without you!!!! We love you so much and our hearts are broken, your are our sunshine Jimmy, Love your sister forever Chrissy x0xx0x00x0
