To the Giannetti Family,
Although I personally never met Jim, he was married to my friend Kathy who was so deserving of a good man in her life. From what I've read in the Guest Book and on Facebook, Jim was that man and I am so grateful that he blessed my friend by sending Jim her way. My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.

Dear Giannetti Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this most difficult time of the passing of Jim. Jim fought hard, and he has a wonderful family that helped him. There are no words to comfort you at this heart breaking time, just know you have a beautiful Angel that will watch over you always. May God comfort you and give you the strength you need to know Jim's spirit lives. He will be with all of you always and watch over you. Jim is not far from you, talk to him, call out to him when you need him, he will hear you, listen for him in your heart, he will answer you. I know right now you may not think this, it's too hurtful, you want him back, but God needed him more, God needed another Angel. I know what you're all going through, I went through it also with my Mom and Dad, it hurts so bad, but think of all the good memories you have and cherish them always. Think of Jim free of pain, no suffering, just eternal life with God. Remember we will all meet again. May God Bless all of you, and May Jim rest in peace. Sincerely, Agnes and Will.
