James Cousineau Obituary

Dear Deborah,
Although we do not know each other, my husband Tom has mentioned in conversation what a nice person you are. Having just been through a loss of our own one week earlier (Toms Father, Arthur), we know that it means so much to have been in so many peoples thoughts and prayers. We wanted you to know how truly sorry we are to hear of your loss, please know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Your husband was very loved by so many, a very caring man, who obviously had deep compassion and concern for others. This world has truly lost a wonderful man.

Again, our thoughts and prayers are with you...

Motorola Warehouse, Libertyville, Il.

Jim was your true love and you guys shared many good times together. Gosh there are so many funny stories over the years.

I know he loved you so much and is watching over you.

If you ever need a babysitter for Bailey please let me know. I promise I will take care of him and make Bailey’s breakfast just the way Jimmy would make his breakfast in the mornings.

Dear Cousineau Family -

I would like to express my condolences on the loss of your loved one, Jimmy. It has been a long time since I have seen Jimmy but I have fond memories of growing up in the neighborhood. I remember him being full of energy and always having a smile. It would be great hanging out late with Kenny at the Cousineau house on Monticello on those nights Jimmy stopped by after work. Debbie, you and the entire Cousineau family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Mike Kelly

Cousineau Family -

We're so very sorry to hear about Jimmy. We haven't seen Jim in years, but when we were young he always made us laugh and like all the Cousineau's always made us Kelly's feel welcome - even though we didn't live on the main street "Monticello". We are very sorry for your Loss.

Hi Bob;
You and yours have our deepest condolences! If there is anything I can do to help you thought this time please feel free to lean on me!

Deb and Family, I have worked with James, in the recent 3 months as some of us residents in Johnsburg have worked hard and long in opposition to the Village's SSA. James worked hard with our team of volunteers, and was a passionate man of open convictions and questions. His smile and diligence has probably helped a great many residents. I would like you to know that I really enjoyed his compassion, his laugh, his prodding for the truth, and his willingness to help. Through many, many hours of planning and work, James was an awesome contributor and I am so glad to have gotten to know him personally. What a great guy! My family's thoughts and prayers are with you. No doubt in my mind, James is in a better place, watching over all of us. If I know James, he is doing his thing to help the Anti-SSA work, AND the Cubs, in any way he can. Signed, a friend, on the other side of Dutch Creek Woodlands.

Debbie,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'll never forget Jim's full laugh and big smile. I have so many happy memories of him from when i was a kid, and even though you moved away and i grew up i never forgot you guys. I miss him so much but i know he's happy and he wouldn't want me or anyone else to cry for him.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Deb,

You will be in my Family prayers. I know this is the toughest time of your life as I am well aware of how close and compasionate you and Jimmy were. With God's grace you will get through this as you know Jimmy is with Him in heaven and he is looking down and wants you to be happy and remember him only through your happy thoughts.

Deb and Family, I am so very sorry to hear of your profound loss of Jimmy.

Take care, you and Jim are in our thoughts. He will always be remembered for his kindness and putting up with "Nick" for all those years. Toni & Patrick, Jerome and Joe.

Deb,
Remember how Jack would crawl under the fence when he heard Jimmys voice, he knew he would get a treat, or how all the neighboorhood kids came running when he got home from work and he would meet them all with popsicles? Jim touched a lot of lives during his short time here on earth and he will be solely missed! Bet he is heaven feeding Jack treats and passing out popsicles! You know I am here if you need anything just call!

We are so sorry for your loss. Jimmy was a wonderful man with a great sense of humor. He always knew how to make you laugh and our children adored him. He was like a big kid who knew that life was to short to worry about the little things. Jim taught us a valuable lesson, live life to the fullest, be happy, have fun and find your inner beauty and peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Hello Deb,
I don't know where to begin but I am going to speak from my heart right now. My heartfelt prayers and deep compassion are with you during this unwanted journey in your life. You were there for my husband Gary and took a genuine concern for his spirtual healing by requesting prayer through a prayer chain. How can I ever thank you enough for this! Gary, is now home in heaven with Jesus which gives me peace. You are a deeply spirtual woman and I know our lord and saviour will see you through this painful journey. He is seeing me though my journey but I could not do it without faith. We both know our amazing husband's are with our lord at this very moment! Praise God! and we both know we will be with our beloved husbands once again. Just know, I care and I will call you for dinner in the near future.
God Bless you and your Family!
