Jim was a classmate and friend who was always thoughtful and respectful to all. I have memories of Jim and I driving to Wilmot Ski area only to discover it was closed because of the extreme cold(-26). We did however have a good drive and good conversation.

Jim was my brother-in-law and uncle to my son, Patrick. He was a gentle soul with many varied interests. He loved his family and his church, and I am so sorry I was not able to talk to him before he passed. I know he is now with his beloved parents, brother, and nephew. May he rest in peace.

Thank you to Father Mescall and all of the parishioners of St. Adrian for taking such good care of Jim. I was a grammar school classmate and couldn't attend the funeral Mass but was with all of you in spirit. Jim was a wonderful guy. May he rest in God's hands now.

A fond farewell from the Family of St. Adrian to our dear James. You were a faithful member of our church, and you will be missed. May angels' wings deliver you to the awaiting arms of our Dear Lord.

Jim and I were classmates for four years and friends for life. He was a generous, kind soul who always helped a friend in need. He will be missed by me as well as others. May god bless him!

Jim has the answer!

I went to St. Mel Grammar School with Jim. He was one of the smartest guys in our graduating class and the only one, I believe, to go to St. Ignatius. He was a good friend in grammar school but we lost touch over the year. We will say prayers and remember him in our Masses.
