This is a long shot but if any of Mr. James Moccio´s children read this I would love for you to reach out to me. I was named after your father and I have SO many questions as you can imagine! He and your mother are my godparents and he is my namesake. I was so sad to see he passed. But it took me 54 years to locate his legal name! See pic plz. Thank you, Jamie

Our deepest sympathies to all. As you know Uncle Jimmy was like a big brother to Solly. He is so devistated that he cannot be there to comfort everyone. Our prayers are with you all.
