Dear Jane,
I am so very sorry to hear about the passing of Jim. My memories from him are filled with fun times, great experiences and of course, the glory days of DePaul Academy when he led our football team to many great victories. He was always an outstanding person and you were the jewel of his life. We will certainly keep him in our prayers and you also.

Dear Jane,
Lynn and I extend our sincere and deepest sympathy to you in the loss of your husband, Jim. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Jane, and with your family during this difficult time. Jim was a one-of-a-kind person, being loved by everyone he came in contact with. Jim was my best man at my 1st marriage; we also attended grade school (St. Andrews), and high school (DePaul Academy) together, along with playing football and basketball together. The years have passed but I never stopped thinking of the good times we had together.
Sincerely,

To The Cronin Family,
Mr. Cronin was my Guidance Counselor and Football Coach at DePaul Academy 1960-1961. He taught and coached by example. I remember his stories about driving a milk truck during summer vacation. Later, I had the privilege of working with his brother John and his nephew Tim on the Chicago Fire Department. My Prayers and thoughts are with you. Thank you.

Sorry to hear about JIM. As a long time friend, (St Andrews 1945 & DePaul 1949), We had similar experiences. Living half my life on the North side & half on the South Side. Due to a Job change, I moved my family South to Homewood (7 Kids) in 1972.
When you moved back North to Belmont Ave, Jim showed up at the Paulina-Hermitage luncheon reunion and we did reminisce about the old days. The Lakeview neighborhood, playing ball in the schoolyards (Hamilton) & many DePaul storys.(Especially how Tom O'brien & football turned his hair GREY).
He was just a WONDERFULL GUY!!!!
He will be Missed.
