Jimmy was a good-hearted friend. That's the nicest thing I can say about him. I can't find an unkind thing to remember about him and I'm sorry we lost touch. He had a way about him that made people smile even when they were having an off day. He was always sweet, never malicious the way high school can be. We shared many of the same classes for four years together and became good friends. I'm sad to see that we won't meeting again. I remember seeing him down the shore and we would compare who had a nicer car.... LOL I hope you are looking down on us Jimmy. I'll say a prayer for you and your family.
Well, I don’t know where to start. I get choked up whenever I think about the guy that I considered my brother. We had a great friendship from the first day we met in the 7th grade till after freshmen year of college. The parties we had and going to the clubs, were some of the most remember able times in my life. Running with him and Jimmy Lynch, and the plethora of women that entered our lives. What a bunch of Guidos. Jimmy started running with a new group of friends. I did not like these guys all that much. He was still friends with these guys till the day he died. You are responsible for your own actions. But these guys brought bad things into his life. I tried to pull him away. But he was already doing things, not to my knowledge. A double funeral was tough. As Jimmy mother passed away three days later.(she had been sick for years) Mr. Prisco was going to tell her in the morning that Jimmy had a horrific tragedy happen to him. Luckily, he did not have to tell her, as she passed away during the night. Could you imagine her surprise when she got up to heaven and her favorite son was there to meet her? I was working in Knoxville, TN when I found out about my old friend. And cried my eyes out till I could not cry anymore. (As I am now writing this) I was able to make it to the funeral and put a flower on his coffin. RIP Jimmy
I also remember Jimmy as being such a sweet person. When I picture him in my head, I remember his smile with those big dimples. He was a friend to many; it didn't matter what "crowd" you were in. When I heard that he had taken up with a crappy group of group of people, I couldn't figure out why, because it did not seem "like him." No matter what he did or how he died, I will always remember him as that sweet guy with a great smile!! My thoughts and prayers to his family and loved ones!
