We're very sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I remember when we were planting trees at Sacred Heart, Jim took it upon himself to install the supports for the trees. It's something no one else thought of but I think he was that kind of guy - resourceful and helpful without having to be asked. Crystal, you and the boys will be in our prayers.

Loretta, Mark, Elaine and Tom de Sousa

I was fortunate to work with a Jim for several years at NEMHC. Jim was not only a great colleague but also an advocate for our patients.

Crystal my heart goes out to you and your boys during this sad and terrible loss in your life. Take comfort offered by others. Your memories will carry you on to each new day.

My heart is so full of sadness as I offer you my deepest sympathies, Crystal, Dominic, & Benjamin. It's painful to know that a good man like Jim has gone too soon. Not only is his passing an enormous loss to your family but also to his workplace & those of us who valued him. He was a model of kindness, integrity, & compassion to his patients and co-workers. My prayers are with your family that God will sustain you at this very difficult time. Rest in peace, James.

Bittersweet. My heart goes out to Crystal, now bereft. I give thanks for James, now free and at peace. His sufferings have ended. My heart and thoughts are with Crystal, now bereft, eshausted, and numb. The strength you each have had alone, and together, will protect and carry you through over time. But now, absorbing the loss is all embracing. As we gather to remember James's great spirit and solid humanity, we give him back the the source of his creation. May he be embraced now only by Love. And may he enter a beautiful learning experience in the Universe, along with experience of the love of re unions with those who loved him and have gone on before him. I can see his signature "thumbs up" , and recall one of his typical quotes "Its been a blast". Blast on.... good fella! We are trying to "let go" for now and will try to help each other. And Crystal: words are too small, but, back to you with "hoah binh!". Jeff Archambeault former work colleague

I'm Spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this Year
I see the countless Christmas trees,
Around the world below.
With tiny lights, like heaven's stars,
Reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
Please wipe away that tear.
For I'm spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs,
That people hold so dear.
But the sounds of music can't compare,
With the Christmas choir up here.
For I have no words to tell you,
The joy their voices bring.
For it is beyond description,
To hear the angels sing.
I can't tell you of the splendor,
Or the peace here in this place.
Can you just imagine Christmas,
With our Savior, face to face?
I'll ask Him to light your spirit,
As I tell Him of your love.
So then pray one for another,
As I lift you eyes above.
Please let your hearts be joyful,
And let your spirit sing.
For I'm Spending Christmas in Heaven,
And I'm walking with the King.
