James Giblin Obituary

My dear Jimmy, It has been a year since you unexpectely left us and the pain does not get any better. I miss you more and more every day. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about you. I love you so much. I hope you are happy.

Jimmy,
It has been almost a year since we lost you already. They say that the pain gets better as time goes on but that is not true. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. It feels like there is a hole in our family that can never be filled. I hope that heaven is as beautiful as they say it is and that your are not lonely up there. Hopefully you are making somebody laugh with that great sense of humor. I love you and miss you more than I thought possible.

daddy i miss you more then words can describe it. cant believe its 8 months. i miss you calling me cheif. i love u coach. i hope im making u proud. i love u and we all miss you

Jim,
I cant believe its six months without you. Through good or bad I never thought I would live a minute of my life without you. The pain never seems to get any better. I miss you more that words could ever express. I loved you and needed you more than anything in this world. I try to make it through as best I can but....I love you so much and miss you. Terri

Dear Terri and family,
Our family will keep you in our prayers as you begin to heal. It is easy to see what kind of a person Jim was by the wonderful, polite, young men he has left to continue his legacy. May you know that there are many people that love you all and will be there for you when you need them. Never be afraid to ask for help!

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To my wonderful Brother,
I miss you so much. I cannot believe that you are gone and how much it hurts that you are not here to make me laugh again. It is truly unfair. You truly knew how to make everyone around you laugh. I love you so much and miss you more as each day goes on.

Love you so much your sister Colleen.....

Hi Terri and family

I am so sorry about your loss. I just new you from a distance but you looked like such a great family. Just remember if you need anything we are there for you. I'm
sorry we couldn't come tonight but
I didn't know. I just wanted you to know my thoughts are with you all.
Once again we are all very sorry!!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Terri,
I am so deeply sorry to hear of the shocking news. I went on a walk the other day and looked at your old house a few doors down and I cannot believe what has happened. Be strong, life goes on and you will make it through this. God will give you the strength. We will keep you and the boys in our prayers. If there is anything we can do please let us know.

Dear Jim,Sharon, And Family,
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Jimmy's wife and children

Terri & The Giblin families,

Although I haven't seen Jim in years. I couldn't believe the news of his passing. I'm so sorry for your loss. God is alway's taking the good ones. Not fair! Jim was a great friend for many years to my brothers and many other dudes growing up on 78th Street and attending Dawes School. I remember as a young girl this tall kid hanging around smiling,happy and polite to everyone around him. He was really cool. He will be greatly missed. Remember to be strong Terri for those wonderful boys. His legacy can live on through the boys that will grow up to be fine men. I'm sure Jim will be watching over all of you, and would want you to celebrate his life.

TERRI,
MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO YOU AND YOUR SONS, MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU. JIM WAS A GREAT HUSBAND, FATHER, AND FRIEND TO ALL THAT KNEW HIM. HE WILL BE MISSED. SINCERELY

We are so sorry to hear about Jim. He was such a nice guy and always had a smile on his face. Our sympathies are with you during this difficult time.

There are so many words that I want to say write now, but I don't think there is enough space in this comment box. Jim, you were more than a friend, shoulder or perfect guy for my cousin, you were my family. The reality hasn't truly hit me, but you are most than just missed, your beyond loved. I don't know what my family will do without you, I love you so much. Your in my heart and prayers forever. I LOVE YOU!!

Mr. and Mrs. Giblin, Colleen, Kim an Kelly and families, I am so sorry for your loss. It is so hard to believe that we just saw Jimmy 2 months ago. I am glad we had the chance to see and talk to him one last time. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

He was the nicest and custest guy and everybody loved him. Jimmy, we will all miss you so much!

I met Jim in grammar school, I think it was 2nd grade. We were friends through high school. We lost touch after that. Jim was always so nice and funny. He always had a smile on his face and he made me laugh. I will remember him always. My heartfelt sympathy to all who loved him. God rest his soul.

Our hearts go out to you at this time and in the days ahead.OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY LOUIE AND PATTY

Our prayers are with you in this most difficult time. Jim was one of the good guys. God bless you.
