Dear Dottie, Stephanie and Ashley,
I can't believe it's been 5 years now.
Still such a void left in our lives of a man filled with so much love, warmth and
kindness to us all.
Holly and i send our love and best regards,
Jay
Btw, we have moved to Mahoney Farms in Sudbury.
Nice to feel at home once again.

Dottie and Family,
Wow i can't believe it's been a year.
Some people touch your life, but Jimmy touched your heart and soul !
My only regret is i didn't know him sooner and share more time with him.
In time we all need to find peace, but no peace or comfort will ever take away
the laughs and fun times i spent with you and Jimmy .
I love you bud, RIP

Jim will be remembered often and truly missed. It has been great knowing him as a friend and golf partner and trusted advisor. True to his profession and love for his family as noted by his legacy. He saw people for what they are and made those around him better.
Rest in peace my fiend, it's been a long time.
