I'm so sad to hear of Jim's passing. We worked together at SECTfilms and on many short films. He was good at everything he did. And so generous with his time. If there is cooking to be done in heaven, let it be led by Jim.

My sincere condolences to the family and friends of Jim. I'm glad I reconnected with one of my best "childhood" friends about 12 years ago. A man with a very big heart was he. Jim will be missed by many because everyone he came in contact with he left a lasting impression. R.I.P Jimbo

We will truly miss that genuine smile and laughter that we shared over the years. A man of great talent and vision. You recognized my band's message and helped deliver it in your works. You will be forever in our hearts, Jim. And to your family I wish you strength as I pray and think of you during this difficult time.

To all the Cimalore family, I am so sorry for your loss. He was such a great guy who loved his Mom to no end. He was her rock. He will sadly be missed, but Heaven will get Da Gorilla to entertain them. RIP my dear friend.
