James TWOHIG Obituary

TWOHIG, James F. Jr. Age 72, passed away peacefully, on April 14, 2025, at his residence in Dorchester, Massachusetts. Jim was born in Springfield, MA in 1952. He was raised in Longmeadow and later settled in East Falmouth. He graduated from UMass Amherst with a bachelor's degree. Jim went on to spent many of his working years at Battles Auto Center. He was an avid gardener and loved fishing. Known for his friendly spirit, dry wit and love of conversation, Jim made a lasting impression on everyone who crossed his path. Jim is survived by his two loving sisters, Mary Ann Hickey of Marblehead, Ohio and Jeanne Concannon of Mashpee, MA. He also leaves behind five nieces and nephews and nine great-nieces and great-nephews. Jim was a lifelong fan of New England sports, never missing a Bruins game and always cheering for the Patriots on Sundays. He also had a soft spot for classic comedy, especially The Three Stooges, which he could watch for hours on New Year's Eve, with the same delight every time. He was predeceased by his parents, Edith Twohig and James F. Twohig Sr. A private celebration of his life will be held later this summer. For online guest book www.chapmanfuneral.com

I am sorry to hear of Jimmy's passing. I conduct monthly safety meetings at Standish Village and he was one of my favorite residents. Always made me laugh! May he rest in Peace

I came to Standish Village from Longmeadow last year and met Jim. He was very friendly and we shared stories of Longmeadow with each other. He was a great ambassador. I gave him rides to the bank and store occasionally. He is missed.

I've known Jimmy since grammar school. We grew up in the same neighborhood in Longmeadow. We spent many a day hanging out at Jimmy's house in the day. He was my roommate at UMass in Amherst our senior year. We experienced our youth, laughing and getting into trouble quite often. We lost track of each other over the years, but I always considered Jimmy as one of my dear friends. RIP
