Dear Joann and Family,

Surely the angels have welcomed Jim into Heaven with opened arms. Our hearts are hurting for all of you but know that your sweet memories and great faith will sustain you.

You know how many memories we have of Jim. From the time he was just a little guy he captured my heart along with my Mom and Dad's and of course my brother Jim. His winning smile and mischevious sense of humor endeared him to all who knew him.He never lost his sense of family, his roots, his friends and his example of honesty, and caring was apparent not only in his personal relationships, but was well apparent in his business dealings. May God grant you all peace. Will talk to you soon. Love, Jeanne and Ted Kocal and family.

All of us at Nation's Restaurant News join our friends throughout the foodservice industry in mourning the loss of Mr. Cantalupo. Our prayers are joined for his wife, his children, and the entire McDonald's family.

To the Cantalupo Family,



Please accept my deepest condolences to the whole family. I am still perplexed with his passing away.

While at McDonald's I had the honor to meet him here in Brazil and in the US for a few times, and became an admirer of this great man and fellow worker.

In the past years, I had an enourmous pride telling people that I had met, knew and admired Jim Cantalupo.

May God keep his soul and confort the whole family and friends.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Jim's family. He will be missed.

My deepest sympathy at your time of loss. May God watch over you and help you all through this time. I know Jim, as my sister was once married to his brother, Bill. You opened your home to myself and my family and always treated us warmly. I was very young at that time, but remember Jim as a very fine man. My deepest sympathy goes to all the family members.

To the Dear Family of Jim Cantalupo,

I am a relative of the Martino family, my Aunt June and since passed Uncle Louie. Cousin of a good friend of Jim's, Louis Conti. I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. My sister Lynne was at the convention and is an owner/operator I grew up with a McDonald's family. How fortunate that McDonald's Corp. had the leadership they had with him. Although Jim will be missed, I know that Our Father in Heaven has special plans for him. God Bless all of you.

Our deepest sympathies and prayers to the family of a wonderful person and friend.



Much love,

Emmett and Mary Claire

On behalf of the Board, staff and, most importantly, the patients of the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, our deepest condolences go out to the Cantalupo family.
