So sorry to hear about Jimmy passing. I just found out tonight. He was such a sweet person. Always smiling. Took such good care of your Dad. My thoughts are with all of you during this sad time.

Just hearing about Jimmy's passing. One if the good guys, was Jimmy. I always saw him walking his dogs. Always a smile and hello and a willingness to talk old times. It amazes me that all the boys in this family are gone.
My prayers go out to the women of the family of Jimmy. RIP James

Just heard about Jimmy´s passing, my condolences to his family. He never walked past you without saying hello and he was my trainer as a 17-18 year old starting out in Foodtown before he left for the post office. RIP, Jim...and thanks .

I was saddened to hear of Jimmy´s passing. He was a quiet man but once you got him talking, he was full of laughter and had a smile that lit up the room! He was very good to my parents, and he made living so far from them a little easier knowing that I could count on him to check on them when needed.
Jimmy I know you´re at peace and happy to be reunited with your family who were there to welcome you home with open arms. My deepest condolences to his family.
Kind regards,
Deirdre Kelly

Rest in peace Jimmy. You were always a kind soul with a smile from ear to ear. I have fond memories of visiting My cousins and following the Orchard gang around. May your family find peace that you are with your parents .

I have known "Jimmy " his whole life. As a little boy sitting on my parents back porch with all the neighborhood kids and for years after. I always stopped to catch up with him whenever I was back in South Amboy. We would talk as he passed by walking his dogs. He was always willing to help my parents with taking out and taking in the trash etc. and other things. He didn´t asked. He just saw the need and stepped in. He was a great neighbor and a life long friend. He will be missed on Orchard Place! Rest well my friend! You´ve earned it.

You were a great friend and forever neighbor, part of the original Orchard Place gang and everyone will miss you and always remember you. You were especially kind and considerate to Rose and Pat Kelly who were very fond of you. May you rest in peace. Our deepest sympathy to Eileen, Ellen and Jane and the extended Carey family.
