Just thinking a ton about you today. Though I think about you everyday. Lol You´d laugh at the fact I married a James whose ex is a Victoria (Vicky) I think y´all would have got along he reminds me of you at times. Guess we do marry guys like our fathers sometimes. H and I were just talking about you the other day, sharing memories and such. She´s on to Unity for college and is getting work in tech soon. It makes me feel older by the day. We love you tons and miss you! Tell mana, aunt Sharon and grandpa I said hello! Also make sure to meet Tyler and tell him Jameson misses and loves him! I know you´ll be good friends he was very into bodybuilding, cars and sports too!

It is hard to believe it's been 10 years already. Hope you and Mom had a great reunion, I am sure you had a good time as she caught you up on the last 10 years. We miss you. I have been back to Tucson almost annually now. You are not forgotten, and never will be. You touched each of our lives. Love Connie

Its been a long while but I have not forgotten you. I think of you always, you come up in a lot of conversations with the family. You was loved by everyone, and we all miss you. I wish everyday that you were here. After your passing I went into a very bad dark place. I'm so glad I have family and friends that was there to help. I'm good now actually really good. You would never believe this but I'm a dart player and actually not to bad at it. Our family has grown. We have 5 grand daughters, Brielle, Brynley, Harper and Emery from Daniel and Damiana from Mickey. They are the love of my life. They are what keeps be going. Being around them brings me so much joy. Brielle is our movie star. Drama queen, she is so dramatic with everything she does. Brynley is the silent one. She very sensitive and very conscious about her appearance. She's going to be a model. Then theres Harper, shes three and a world wind of energy. She is hyper and full of life but fragile. See she has seizures. I am so glad that her parents are very educated and cautious with her. Then theres Emery she is only 6 months old, she is just starting to come into her personality. Can't wait to see how she turns out. Last is Damiana she is a grandma's girl. She is going to be that feisty tom girl. They would absolutely love you with how loving and carrying you was. The way you interacted with the kids. The strength and wisdom you had. Your loved and missed very much. I know this is not good bye but until we see each other again. With all my love. Vickie

There's so many things I wish I could share with you! To just hear your voice as you give me a hard time about them. Like Haille learning to drive or her teenager attitude lol I wish I could give you a hug and tell you about the new chapter starting in my life. I wish I could hear your sarcastic fatherly wisdom and stories that weren't completely embellished lol I wish you were here to talk sense through all the craziness going on. I miss you so very much dad and love you more than you knew! ❤

Jim, hope you are watching your girls and granddaughters, they have grown into such wonderful persons, can't believe your oldest granddaughter is 17 already. Now that I have a grandson, I understand your love for them even more. Wonder what all you would have to say about this Covid-19 Pandemic, it would be hard to keep you quarantined for this long. You are not forgotten, sometimes Mom talks about you when I call her. May God continue to watch over your girls and their families. Love your "little" sister Connie

I didn't remember today was the anniversary of you passing away until I saw a tribute on Facebook that Judie gave you, and your daughter Maureen had some nice words for you too. Things are different without you. You are still and always will be in our thoughts. Love your sister up North, Connie

You will never be forgotten, can't believe 3 years has passed already. Your daughters and granddaughters are wonderful, they are your legacy, we are all proud of them. I realized the other day you were born on 4/11, no wonder you had so much information to share with the world :) Love your "little" sister, Connie

2 years doesn't get any easier! Everything in Tucson reminds me of you, every song that plays has a memory of you! I got a dust bunny tattoo on my arm yesterday in memory of you and it says "another one bites the dust" in your handwriting! Traced it from the last bday card sent to Haille before you left us. Haille and i talk about you and do the elbow knuckle rump often. She wears your helmet sometimes and just sits in it watching tv, i think it just makes her feel close to you. I love you always and you will never be forgotten! XO -BA

Jim you are definitely not forgotten. I thought of you on my 54th birthday this month, and knew I wouldn't be getting my Hey Con, Happy Birthday call. I have been working with my digital pictures too, so I see your face quite often. We lost you way too soon. We love you. Connie

Tomorrow marks one year since my father was taken from us! It has been so very hard to realize he isn't across town sitting on his couch watching some sport event or car race! Everywhere in Tucson i drive by, every song on the classic rock station, every old hot rod is a memory of my father and a 5-30 min cry session! Your forever in my heart Dad! For all the things we may have ever disagreed on im sorry! I wish i could have talked to you before you left but we are "TRUE" MULCAHY'S and being stubborn is our nature! I love and miss you as does Haille! she wears her race girl shirt all the time! your always her G-PA! your forever my Father Love your scooter, oscar the grouch, eldest daughter BETHANY ANNE!!! :D
