What a loss. Jim was a wonderful person. He came to work for me 30 years ago and remained my great good friend all this time. Even when he was at his most ill, he never complained. Instead, he wanted to know how I was doing. He was incredibly loyal. Concerned more about others than himself. I am so sorry for the loss of Jim and wishing you my deepest heartfelt condolences. I am so sorry for your loss, Paula.

Rest In Peace OB. A person could never ask for a more true friend. The memories of the good times we had together will never be forgotten. It seems like yesterday when we were hanging out going to concerts, White Sox games, vacationing together and, of course, you standing up as the Best Man in my wedding.
We will miss you,
Joe Perillo and Family
