It is with a heavy heart we learned of Jaimies passing. Marie we know of the devotion you had for each other. We also know of your deep Catholic faith and pray God will help you through this terrible time. Love to you and your Family.

Jimmy, I know that you are up in Heaven right now...looking down upon us with that big smile of yours that we all love and miss. I’m happy to know that you are pain free at last. The time we had together as family will forever remain priceless and will never be forgotten. You were as complete a man as I have ever known. You are my friend, my coach, my mentor, and most of all, my Dad. There are no words that can express how much I love and miss you. I feel extremely honored to have had you in my life. From the very first moment we met, you made me feel welcomed and I thank you for that. For the past 17 years, you have always been there as my Dad. Never questioning, just doing. We always had great times whatever it was we were doing. Our family trips and vacations, the house projects no matter how big or small, all of our home car maintenance……there are just too many things to list. I am happy to have seen you as a Grandfather. Always with completely open arms and heart, you never wavered a bit. You absolutely loved and adored your grandchildren and they love and miss you very much. I only hope that we can do as good a job in raising our children as you and Marie did with Joy and Jon. Be proud of the job you did. You instilled great morals, ethics, responsibilities and respect, but also led by example in the process. It is so hard to find the words to explain where “Grandpa†is. Jeffrey, Sydney and Katelyn know that you are with Jesus and that you are not sick or hurting anymore. Jimmy, you have my word…We will never let the children forget you and who you are. You will forever be a part of their lives. I want you rest in peace knowing that everything is ok and taken care of. Our family is together because of you and it will never break apart. Our bond is strong and our love is stronger. You may have left us physically, but you will never leave us. Your presence is forever around us and very abundant. We will continue what you have left and will not fail in doing so. You have our word. I love and miss you very much and it would be selfish of me to want you to be right here at this very moment. Watching you push through your pain these past months has been unbearable. None of us can imagine the pain that you were feeling inside. Not once, during all of this time, did we ever hear one complaint come from you. Walking a flight of stairs, getting in and out of cars, a short walk around the house…..these may seem simple tasks to some that are took for granted daily, but you had horrible pain to deal with when doing this. On your face expressions, and in your eyes, I always saw your grit and determination to conquer this. To us, Jimmy, you did more than enough. Please know in your own mind that you did also. None of us want to say “Goodbye†but rather, a “See you laterâ€Â. I can see you right now… Up in Heaven… hosting a karaoke party and of course, you’re the life of the party as you always were. Getting people up to sing, getting out on the dance floor and leading the dances…just making sure that everyone’s having as good a time as they can. That’s you! Selfless….. You always put others before you. And when the waiter or waitress comes around, don’t forget to order yourself your “Jaimeken†… to get the laughter from everyone that you were always able to bring out. I LOVE and MISS YOU VERY MUCH and please know….We’ll take it from here. Gone but never forgotten… Love You Always, Michael##imported-begin##Michael Beeks##imported-end##
