Jimmy Devine Obituary
New Milford - Jimmy Devine, 62 of New Milford, NJ passed away on March 17, 2020. He was born on December 19, 1957 in Stuttgart, Germany on an army base and grew up in Closter, NJ. He loved reading, gardening, cooking (best chili ever!!), telling stories and learning about history. Most of all he enjoyed spending time with his family, his wife Adrienne and children Sean, Sarah and Savannah, and his mom, Judy, as well as his extended family. He cared for all animals, especially his pets, Salem, Tiger and Roxie. He was well liked and had a great sense of humor. If you knew him, you knew he was a unique soul; when they made him, they broke the mold.
Memorial services will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital would be much appreciated.

I was good friends with Jimmy when we were teenagers. We spent a lot of time together back then. He had the best sense of humor, and he would even laugh at himself. We talked about EVERYTHING in life and I loved hanging out with him. Sometimes we'd go to the China Chalet in Closter and have umbrella drinks and laugh for hours. He shared so much with me. I will miss him so much! I'm sending my condolences and love to Adrienne, the children and Jimmy's mom, Judy. I am so sorry Adrienne and Judy! I will keep you in my thoughts and continue to send healing vibes to you!

Mr. Devine was always welcoming of us hooligans (Seans friends) into his home. He was loving and Im going to miss just cracking jokes and talking about nothing/everything in the kitchen with him. He was truly loved and we will miss him dearly. Love you all!
