There are no words that we can say to heal your heart at this time. Jim was a kind young man who had great empathy for others. My father held a very special place in his heart for Jim. The kindness Jim showed to my mother in his last days will never be forgotten. Be assured that although we are separated by over 1500 miles, our constant thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm sorry to learn of Jim's passing. I worked with him on the ambulance at UAlbany. We always loved Jim's sense of humor and passion for the job. Those of us that knew him didn't need to mention him by name...just say the words "big belt buckle" and we all knew that someone was talking about Jim. He will be missed.

SO SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR LOSS. JIM WAS A GREAT GUY. WORKED WITH HIM ON SEVERAL CALLS THROUGH THE WEST EXETER FIRST RESPONDERS. HE WAS A TAKE CHARGE GUY WHOM YOU COULD DEPEND ON WHEN NEEDED. HE WILL BE MISSED. HE ALSO, IN HIS JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE, WORKED WITH MY ADOPTED SON PETER MILLER AT THE MANOR. REMEMBER ALL THE GOOD TIMES YOU HAD WITH JIM. MEMORIES ARE ALWAYS THERE WITH YOU FROM THE TIME ONE IS BORN UNTIL THEY ARE CALLED HOME TO BE WITH THEIR SAVIOR. MARIA, I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW AND I KNOW THERE WILL BE DIFFICULT TIMES AHEAD, BUT LOOK UP AND SEEK THE LORD, FOR HE WILL COMFORT YOU DURING THESE TIMES. YOUR GRIEF WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU, BUT EACH DAY IT WILL GET EASIER TO HANDLE. A FRIEND IN CHRIST.
