Dear Patty and Christian,
I just read that Jim passed in August.
While belated, my condolences to you both.
He was a wonderful supporter of Christian in scouts ~ and I know my husband Gary enjoyed discussing airplanes with him.
May your memories of him provide solace to you both.
Sincerely,
Kris Sullivan

Patty--so shocked and sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I was away on vacation and just found out. Jim always talked about you and his cherished grandson whenever he came to pick up a prescription. He always asked about my family as well, so thoughtful. I know Jim is now soaring high as he always wanted to do flying. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Jimmy and I go back long ago to the days when we would go swimming in Mr. Turshman's swimming pool on Hodge Ave. I graduated with him from AHS In 1974. I was sad to learn of his loss. God grant comfort and peace to his wife and family.

Bill and I have known Jim for a long time. Not only as a customer but a friend. He was always so friendly when he delivered oil to our home and we would talk about flying and his family. Bill and I were lucky enough to have flown with Jim to Block Island for lunch one day and had a great time. Our thoughts are with your family.

Jim I could not have asked for a better brother, and I already miss the back and forth jokes about S.B and L.A. (inside joke between us.) You were always there for me no matter what, and I really believe you reunited with Dad. Just know that Christian and Pat have plenty of support. We will watch over. R.I.P. You earned it.❤

To the Limauro family,
It has been many years since I last saw Jim. I believe that was probably in 2007 or 2008, when I was selling my family home which as Tom, Nancy, or Chrissy will remember was right next door at 34 High Acres Rd in Ansonia. I still remember when I first met Jim and his dad when my father and I were outside in the very early 60s when they were moving in. Many years have gone by since then and I have been out of Connecticut for a long time now but I know Jim had a very successful life, which ended far too soon.
I would like to express my sympathies to all the Limauro family over your untimely loss.

Dean and I are so sad to hear of Jim's passing. He was such a joy to talk with at Jr's bowling. We loved hearing about his love of flying and the multiple stories he had throughout his lifetime. We will miss his bright smile and storytelling. RIP Jim. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family during this difficult time.

I was not only a customer of Jim's for many years, but I also had the privilege to serve as his Eye Doctor. I knew it would be a great day when I saw his name on my schedule. We would always talk about flying, the state of the oil business and of course his grandson. He would always ask about my family and especially my wife. He will be missed...
