So many happy memories of Jim are held for life for me. We enjoyed so many great times during those three years of high school at Kenmore West. Parties , Sherkston, Lyons, dances , Senior Ball, times at each others homes with family. The time we had dinner cooking with potatoes boiling.....learning quickly that you were allergic to even the smell, not just eating potatoes resulting in his asthma attack. Silly little and special memories that 50 yrs have held for me, even the birthstone ring he gave me for my 17th birthday, which I still have to this day.
We did enjoy so much seeing each other at the 1988 reunion....realizing our history of both having divorces in 1979, and missed the chance to date again....social media was not even a thought in those days . We did enjoy a brief rekindal of communication before he was sadly lost to an accidental diving /drowning death in 1990.
Jim was on the committee for that 88 reunion, and I'm certain his spirit is with us for our 50th......so it is with love in my heart, your memory is cherished forever.
We met in Mrs. Duffy's third floor homeroom. Although we moved on in life somehow we stayed friends throughout the years. We worked on our 10th and 25th reunions. Jim was SO excited.and avid about our reunions. For the 25th he hosted most of our meetings! What a zest he had for life! It was a tragedy to lose such a fun loving, good friend., Jim, i know you'll be looking down "checking things out" at the 50th.
