To the family whom was truly loved.
I have known and worked with Jim for about 30 years.
I'm sorry this is so late but I just found out from Sherry Grey.
Jim will have many friends to be greeting him, my husband included.
Know that he is sad to have left you all, but he will wait patiently until you all join him and you are together again. Stay strong.
He is missed already
Jim, until we meet again, so many happy stories. You are my good memory.

So sorry for your loss. Jim was probably the nicest person I've ever met. It was a pleasure to have worked with him at Magnani & McCormick, Magnaprint. He was always happy go lucky no matter the situation. I feel blessed to have been able to cross paths with such a person. RIP Jim gone too soon but never forgotten.

I met Jim when he worked for M & M. Calls from him, Jim stopping by trying to win a big contract. He won the contract which started our friendship of over 15 years. Always a smile, always a joke, his funny pics from photo shop, stories of his family, our same political views with Jim sending me a private message when we angered someone about politics. Last summer being in his workshop and Jim saying "I can not wait to get back to building" We both loved woodworking and he shared many tips with me. Many memories I will cherish forever, Jim was a true friend who cared so deeply about everyone. He loved his family more than words could say. We have all been blessed to have Jim in our lives. My condolences to Charlene and his family.

Love, Hope, and Faith are the only words I have for you, Jim. We met at Ed Nadolski's home studio in Thorndike when you were in college. Jim loved photography and you wanted to learn more about the camera and taking photographs. From then on Ed took you under his wing and you flew with this art. Jim and Charlene were dating and what a lovely couple. Charlene was the apple of his eye and heart. Jim's love for his wife was never ending. Ed enjoyed photographing your wedding and followed your life as life goes.

I don't even know what to say. You touched so many lives in so many ways. Your love for your family was so inspirational. You made me laugh in times that were dark. You showed a strength like I've never seen. You made us all better by just being you. I will miss your posts, kind words and your forever xoxo❤ at the end of your messages. Dance with the angels, Jim.

I met Jim back in 2004, while working together at Magnani & McCormick in Enfield, CT. He and I were like brothers and shared many, many great times together. I recall several golf outings playing with our sons when they were very young and cherishing spending time together. Jim was a true friend and I will miss him dearly. I want to share the following poem entitled " I'm Free " which I found and expresses what I am struggling to say:

I'm Free

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I'm following the path God has laid, you see.
I took His hand when I heard His call.
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I found the peace at the close of day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.

Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee.
God wanted me now,
He set me free.

Charlene we have no words to express how sad we feel to know that Jim will no longer pop in at any moment with funny antics and then great compassion. We can't say it enough...that we are so very happy to have known him. What a joy he was, no matter what he might have been feeling physically or emotionally at the moment....he always had the ability to raise others up. We love you and extend our hands out to you....if there is ever anything we can do for you just ask.

Charlene, Jeffrey, Shannon and Family...my sincere condolences, prayers, love and hugs. I worked at RR Donnelley with Jim.. I will never forget his kindness, his prayers for my mother and lighting a candle for her, when she was in the nursing home and I was at my lowest point. I prayed for him and your family and he prayed for my mother. I loved his sense of humor and photo shop talent on Facebook. I am thankful for being blessed to have known him and your family. I hope you have comfort knowing that he is no longer in pain and has gone from an earth angel to a Heavenly Angel watching over all of you

Dear Charlene and family,
I was so sad to read the news about Jim's passing. He was a good man and shared many of his values in life. Once was the 4 f's Faith, Family, Friends, Finance. I remembered this advice and have thought of him when faced with challenges. He was so good to my Aunt Edye Hubacz during the loss of her son David. I am sorry that I had lost touch with all of you. Living in Los Angeles right now. God Bless you all and dearest sympathy at this time. Many prayers to you all. Connie Moore and family

Dear Charleen our deepest condolences. I will miss Jim at Janine's sneaking ice cream with his grandson on hot summer days, that overwhelming personality and that infectious smile will last in my heart forever. We go back at least 40 years ago at Wrights. He was one special guy who had such a drive in life and fought the battle with all he had. God bless you all, and to you Jim may you rest in peace, you deserve it.

Fondly,
Kathe Rose

I had the pleasure of working with Jim @ M&M for 7 years we sat next to each other in the sales office. To say we had a lot of laughs would be an understatement. I miss his funny posts on facebook. I am honored to be one of his friends for life. Rest In Peace my buddy, and my condolences to Charlene and his family. God bless.

Dear Charlene, Jeffrey, Shannon and family, I am so sorry for your loss of this beautiful man that you love so very much. Jim had such a way of making you feel special. His attitude was always so positive and upbeat. Jim was a warrior, a fighter a passionate man about the people he loved, and the battle that he fought, so bravely. Always a smile on his face and always so gracious, such a gentleman. Charlene, you are a wonderful person, so open and loving, you two were blessed. He will be deeply missed by all of the people that were lucky enough to know him. I am thinking of you and the rest of the family, and my little friend Sadie. May God bring you comfort knowing that Jim is finally at peace and is no longer in pain. Sending you lots of love. If you need anything, we are all here, and you both were with us in spirit at our support meeting yesterday.
