Dear Sandy, I learned late, of the passing of your dear Dad. My heart breaks for you and your family and Linda. We all have such wonderful memories of this loving man, who did so much for so many people. I always loved coming into Jamies Pub and telling the waitress "I used to be live-in baby sitter 35 years ago for Sandy & Ralph"! Now you both all grown up with families of your own. Your Dad was certainly an icon of Scituate, and it was an honor to know and love him. His big smile and "bear hugs" will forever be etched in my heart. I guess God "needed another Angel", so he took your dear Dad. Our deepest sympathy to you, Linda and your families. Love & Prayers, Felicia & Michael XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Jamie created the closest thing to an Irish Pub on this side of the Atlantic! All ages and walks of life stopped in to socialize and enjoy the good food---and many times during storms and losses it served as a community center for Scituate. When we lost Chick Gates--people gathered there to speak of him and share memories. During the Blizzard of '78 -people went there for sustenance and reassurance, while Jamie himself was driving around to the military roadblocks and handing the men hot pizzas and coffee. Jamie was a loving character who celebrated life and touched many other lives!!
His presence will be greatly missed! FaithE. Bowker-Maloney

Jamie and his family have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I more or less grew up in his restaurant and I have learned so much from Jamie over the years that I will never forget, he never had a problem telling me when I was doing something wrong at work or in my life but he also never forgot to tell me when I was doing it right. I will miss him forever. My love and prayers and thoughts are with the entire Constantine Family. Sandi, Linda and Ralph, I hope your memories will bring you comfort and help you get through this difficult time.
Rest In Peace Jamie~143

Sandi, You know I love you and will be right there if you ever need me.... and for my Jamie's Family, I love you all as well, if not for Jamie's Pub we would have never gotten to know each other and for that I thank you "BIG GUY"!!!

Thanks, Jamie, for providing a wonderfully warm, friendly place -- with good food too! -- for everyone to get together and celebrate new and old friendships and good times.
Jamie's passing is very sad event for our community. He was a man bigger than life -- with a smile, a roaring laugh and a love of life that spread to anyone and everyone he touched. How we will all miss him!
Sandra, I am sure you are in a lot of pain right now. You have your father's big heart; the big, warm smile and the sincere "hello" that you shower on everyone you know. You have many friends who love you, feel for you at this difficult time. I am confident that as you look back on your life with your dad, you'll remember all of the fun times, and your smile will reemerge and continue to warm us all! To you and the rest of your family, my sincerest condolences.

There are some people we meet in our lifetime that are larger than life and they don't just leave footprints behind but are just unforgettable I think Jaime fits into that category. I remember growing up in North Scituate, and practically my whole family at some point worked for Jaime, I would watch Jaime work the room. He went table to table to talk to his patrons. It seemed in some ways to be his stage. As long as he is remembered he will always be with Ralph and Sandy and their families. And since Jaime is unforgettable he will be around forever.

The more we traveled the more we realized that fear makes strangers of people who should be friends.
Jamie, you were one of the most fearless of men and we loved being among your friends.

In so many ways, Jamie was larger than life. With his big heart, he never met a stranger; he welcomed all of us as friends...and meant it. Jamie lived life, large and full, and he enhanced ours. I’ll miss my friend Jamie.

I'd like to thank Jamie for all the years of love, kindness, support and laughter! Jamie and Jamie's Pub has been a boiling point for so many important people in my life... including my own children. Without Jamie and Jamie's Pub I would not have met my husband and had my 3 children. Having said that I've counted over 20 children that have been born due to the parents meeting at Jamie's. This just consists of co-workers and friends that I know of. There are other countless relationships that have been born from there and I'm sure more that I don't know of. Jamie touched everyones life that new him and he'll be terribly missed.
I love ya James!

Jamie, I was shocked and saddenned to hear of your passing.I didn't know that you were not well. I'll always Remember you as my big cousin who was usually away on a trip or off on your bike having so much fun,(the last few times I came to see you I always missed you,once only by a couple of minutes.) Some of my fondest memories are: of the summer(and what a summer it was!) you spent with us so my mother could spend time with my father in the hospital, And What about those "Lionel Trains" It was like "Grand Central Station" in the cellar at West Walnut Park, Can't forget Nantasket Beach and "Ye ole goody Shoppe".Hey Jamie..What the h--- is a Gannet??? You know Jamie, I've been meaning to drive down to see you, there just never seems to be enough time.Life really is much too short. My deepest sympathy to your Family and all those who loved you,
Sincerely, Jimmy

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To the Constantine family:
I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Jamie, in many ways pathed the road for my life. He gave advice, he listened, he criticized but most of all he was always there. Later in my life, he got the rare chance to see me with all three of my daughters. We talked for a bit and he told me how proud he was of how well I had done for myself and what a wonderful Mother I had become. I never got the chance to tell him what that meant to me. I had made so many mistakes in my younger days and he yanked me out of them. I owe Jamie a lot for my life. I truly will miss him and never ever forget him.
May he rest in peace.

I am saddened to hear of Jamies passing. My condolences to his family. I have been eating in his restaurant for so many years and I was always pleased when he would sit down and join our group to chat with us. I remember visiting him in the hospital after his motorcycle accident. He was even cracking jokes then. I never missed his hospitality on Christmas eve's. He is truly a great guy and I am going to miss him.

Jamie at Tobi's Annual Summer Cookout In Wakefield, NH
Tobi Laurion
November 6, 2007
To Jamies family and friends! I met Jamie about 12 years ago. I have to tell you all that he has showed me how to live! Never meeting this man before- I spent 2 weeks with him and at the time his girlfriend (now Wife)Linda. We had a mutual friend named Roland which had invited me to go to Bike week with them. I would never turn down a trip to Bike week, especially how I always dreamed of going. So I meet up w/ Roland and he introduces me to Jamie and Linda and oh my I wasn't sure it was going to be a good time, all three smoked liked troopers and here I was a non smoker traveling 24 hours in a truck w/ two Full dressed Harleys on the back. I had my window cracked the whole way but was having such great conversation which took my thoughts away about how I was inhaleing about 12 cigerettes an hour...I broke the ice by talking about how I grew up farming up here in NH and Jamie just would laugh at all my stories. When we finally arrived in Florida I then realized that this was going to be a blast. It was a trip or should I say a life style that I will never forget. I really found out how the rich lived (compared to my life style of being a country girl). I was woken up by a knock on the Hotel door every morning- Jamie always had coffee and danish delivered to Linda and I. Boy I thought how I could get use to this. We ate at many restaurants and I think I tried everything from frog legs to alligator..Jamie had me eating everything, needless to say I gained about 10 pounds in a few weeks!!! I never traveled till I met Jamie and Roland but since then I have become a traveling woman!! Jamie truly gave me many wonderful memories- From telling cooks off at restuarants (since he owned his own) to complaining about paying $1.25 for a Snapple at a gas station. He showed me how life should be lived. He enjoyed life, he traveled all over and What more can I say- I knew He loved me! What a great feeling that was. I spent 2 winters traveling w/ him, Linda and Roland, I made wonderful memories w/ them all. I then settled down and got married and had a set of twins- no more bike riding for me and 10 years went by without me seeing Jamie due to such a busy life style I had, but This summer Roland got Jamie to come up and see me for my annual Summerbash up here in NH on the Lake- When Jamie got out of the car, my body got all weak and never realized how much I loved that man, He made my day and believe me he really and truly was treated like a King that day...He was surrounded by my family that day and he said to me how he forgot how much fun we use to have and how he missed me and that for a country girl I did good for myself. It is a pleasure to say that I feel complete knowing how he thought I turned out. He was truly proud of me and I know that my life has changed from us meeting. I will miss you Jamie but am so Happy that I got one last time to see you this summer and that you finally got to meet my children. May you rest in peace and see you in Heaven-I love you.
