Jimmy was a standout with his mom at all choir events- rehearsals, masses, holidays. I remember him at the cemetery for a family funeral when choir used to sing at grave sites after the mass. My dad was in a black suit, and Jimmy called him, "Father". When he realized later it was my Dad, Jimmy said, " Aw, Freddy, you're kidding me." The interactions were always warm, and funny, and sweet. God took Jimmy right into heaven. His life was a prayer. May you all be blessed with peace.
