Saddened to hear the news. As a broadcaster, I worked with Jim on many restaurant related promotions and events. Also, over the years, I attended several church services in which he was a participant and leader. His dedication to God and the church were very evident. The community will certainly miss this kind man. My most sincere condolences to Jim's family and friends.

So sorry to hear of Mr Fitzpatrick's passing. What a wonderful man! We met Jim in the early 90's when we began volunteering with him and his company for Catholic Schools fundraisers...such a kind, caring and generous man who loved God and shared his many talents and treasures! As years went on we would see him when he was with Bishop doing 1st Communions, Confirmations funerals and graduations. He was always so kind and friendly.
We would also see him and his family at local baseball games.
We can all learn from his compassion and caring for others.
Thank you for sharing your husband and father. He certainly made a wonderful impact on many!
God Bless and keep you all.

I am so sorry to hear of Jim´s passing. I remember Jim as the wonderful person, friend, and neighbor, that he was. He and his family were always pillars of our St. Vincent de Paul Parish that kept things moving smoothly, and always forward. It was a joy singing with Jim in our church choir, with his voice adding that "special something" to all of our hymns. And he was always happy to help out with anything when asked, even while already living away from Toledo. My family and I send our most sincere condolences to Karen, Kristen, and the entire Fitzpatrick Family, may your wonderful memories of Jim, along with our prayers for you, sustain you during this difficult time.

Although we are members of St. Elizabeth's we frequently attend Mass at St. Joseph's in Roanoke. We were always delighted to hear Deacon Jim's humorous and thought provoking Homilies! They were very relatable. He will be missed! Praying for the repose of his soul...
