To Jimmy,
I was talking to Sue Cramer tonight and after she told me of the sad news we were rehashing Kramer vs Kramer which the three of us saw together. "I'm not out of order you are out of order" was your favorite line. I'm very sad to hear this news. Rest in peace my friend.

Jim, Now you are with Lennon and St. Padre pio. Never forget all the times we jammed with the Beatles. Music and your humor always made my day. Save me a spot and one day we will jam together again. God bless you on this Christmas. Peace, Carl

Dear Family of Jimmy
I knew Jimmy a long time ago when we hung at Gino's back in the 70's.I am so sorry to hear about your loss.Jimmy had the most beautiful smile and laugh and we had alot of great fun times together.I haven't seen Jimmy in many years however I thought of him from time to time and always with a smile.I only learned of his death today and was too late to pay my respects.I remember a smiling carefree boy who was liked by many I'm sure he will be sadly missed.God Bless you and your family.I recently lost my 25 yr old son and the heartache is like no other I have ever experienced.May God comfort you with joyful memories of his life here on earth.Jimmy went with me and my sister and brother in law to the upstate NY Allman Brothers concert back in the 70's.We had more fun getting there than at the rainy concert.This is a memory I will hold dear.Many hugs your way

There are places I remember all my life
Though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain.
All these places have their moments
Of lovers and friends I still can recall
Last night I spent a half hour or longer talking to "Yo Carl" on the phone and he gave me the news about Jimmy. We talked about old times and reminisced about Jimmy and others from the neighborhood. I guess the first thing I remember about Jimmy is unique style of humor, his eyes and smile. We had lots of fun adventures that included Jimmy.
And I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them.
God has blessed you and received you home, Jimmy.
God bless your family and help them be strong through this difficult time. God bless your friends who will have to learn to live without your humor/smile, may they carry on and be stronger.

I have known Jimmy since I was about 17 and he was always kind, fun and had a big heart. He will be missed by all of those whose lives he touched.
