To the family, you have my sincere condolences. When someone falls asleep in death (Ecclesiastes 9: 5,10) the memories we have of them become our most precious treasure. May those memories comfort you as well as Gods promise at John 6:40.

Goodbye to a true gentlemen, with whom I had many good conversations. He was very helpful to me in my endeavors to research my own Dad's service records. Rest in peace. Margie from PNC Park

Honor, Duty to Country, and the love of his family are the cornerstones by which Jim lived his life. we got to know each other as members of the game day staff at PNC Park and as tour guides.

Nobody and I mean nobody got past JIm unlesss they had the proper tickets or credentials to get into the Lexus Club, and as he told me the first time we met when I used the term ex-Marine.the first time I met him "There is no such Marine as an ex-Marine." But he did cut me some slack when I reminded him my service in the UNited States Navy did at certain times serve as taxi drivers for the Marines.

Every summer we would play golf at least 5 or six times, and I those are the times I will remember most. Jim will be missed by many, and missed even more by his family, which was the center of his life

Our deepest condolences to Denise, Daniel, Devlin, Andrew and their families on Jim's passing. He fought a very personal battle with prostate cancer displaying uncommon dignity, grace and courage. It ultimately claimed his life but not his spirit and certainly not his soul. He was a genuine friend who I met through the Pennsylvania Prison Wardens Association nearly 35 years ago. Despite the progression of his own illness, his loyal friendship was never more apparent than the deep concern he demonstrated when I had a stroke in 2017. He would call weekly to check in on my progress. It was Jim who got me interested in working for the Phillies 10 years ago in a similar capacity to the work he did post retirement with the Pirates, a job he loved. Twice a year we would meet at PPWA conferences where we were golfing companions and enjoyed the camaraderie of the hospitality suite. Our conversations often turned to family and it was apparent he was extremely proud of his sons, their accomplishments and their service to their country and community, and of course the love of his life, Denise. Rest easy my friend, your legacy lives on in the many lives you touched. Marty and Kathy Dragovich

Jim was an example of what makes this country great. He was an honorable man, a devoted husband and father, and a man dedicated to serving the community through his military service and his service to the State in his profession. I am so glad to call him a friend and a brother marine as we were in Parris Island at the same time. He now guards the streets of heaven. Until we meet again, Semper Fi brother.
