James Thomas Ritzenthaler

My condolences to his family. He was a good friend and a good person. Passionate for football and dogs and fitness. I have to say he helped me in a time of need and I will never forget it. He will be missed. As he is.

My heart is broken. I just sent you an early birthday wish and the recipient of it questioned who I was. I thought perhaps maybe you got a new phone and did not have my number. I found it odd and unusual that I did not get a birthday wish or any text messages from you last year. I knew that you were in a relationship with a wonderful woman, but I thought that we were going to be continuing our friendship over the years. It´s sad me and it breaks my heart that I just saw you passed away just days before your birthday last year. You´re healthy now and you´re you´re home with our father and your family. You will be missed. As you have been.

Jim was a bartender as a second job when he was working as a cop. That is when I meet him. We dated for a while but we were better as friends. He was there for me at some of the hardest times of my life. He supported me through it all. I am sorry to hear of his passing. He will be missed .
