Dear Dorothy, Chris and family,

During the time that Jim was with SPRED, he showed all of us his loving, caring ways. He never joined us without a suggestion to make things easier or more efficient. He was always looking for a way to help us improve. We will miss his enthusiasm.

You and Jim will be remembered in our prayers.

Mr. Fusco opened his home to me and so many of Chris' friends over the years, greeting us with a trademark "men" each time. I know very few people who gave so much. More than a personal loss, this is a loss to the community. My and Christine's thoughts and prayers are with Chris, his mom and the family.

Dear Dorothy and Chris,

I am saddened beyond words over the loss of your husband and Dad. My most sincere prayers are with you both during this very difficult time.

I will remember your Dad as being so enthusiastic and concerned about your education, Chris, and how friendly he was to all the teachers at Prairie. On behalf of all the veteran teachers here at Prairie, please accept our condolences, too.

God Bless both of you and I know our dear Lord will be at your sides.

Dorthy,



We are very sorry to hear of the passing of Jim. Unfortunately, we are out of town and cannot attend the services. Jim was a very kind and generous man. I was always amazed at the time he donated to helping others, especially Marist High School. You and Jim will be in our prayers.



Sincerely,



Ken & Mary Kay Wood

Dorothy, Chris and Family, Ted and I wish to give our sympathy and tears to you. Our hearts are broken.. Jim will never,ever be forgotten by us. He was truly one of the kindest, most caring , Christ-like persons we've ever met. Jim had a way of making everyone feel important and while doing that never failed to put a smile on our faces.He left a part of himself in the hearts of every child he ever taught. Words escape us. May God and His Blessed Mother give you the strength and graces to get through the difficult days ahead. Jim is at peace with his Maker now and May the Lord hold him in the palm of His hand until we all meet with Jim again. We are here for you to do anything we can to lighten your load.
