Visiting with the Jarvis family every Christmas for almost a decade was always a highlight for our family, even if it was just once a year. We have very precious memories of time spent with Jimmy - ones that will last a lifetime. He was always willing to help us out by offering his time. He taught our children how to fish, and even bought them their first set of fishing gear. On top of that, he was eager to take us out on his boat and show us the best places to fish on the river. One Christmas, he offered to deep-fry my turkey (in less than a half hour), just to save me the hours of preparing it myself. Moreover, it was the heartfelt conversations with Jimmy that will be missed the most - ones full of wisdom and advice. We will miss his hospitality and his wonderful laugh and humor. We love you Jona and Jamie, and we hope to visit with you during the holidays.
With deepest sympathy.
The Giardetti Family

This news leaves me shocked and heart broken. As cousins, Jim and I spent many holidays and a few special summers together growing up. His quick wit and adventurous nature made him very interesting and so much fun. Thoughts and prayers to Jona and Jamie... who clearly added so much happiness and joy to his life! To all the family... Jim will hold a special place in my heart... forever. Rest In Peace, Jimmy.
