It’s amazing to me that we shared a high school class, my best friend / his wife, even a house (for a short time) … yet I feel I hardly knew him. I do know I’m so grateful he was here long enough to have Jimmy Junior in his life … I feel sure that all the best of Jim is captured and will live on in his son’s smile. My deepest sympathy to all the Deminski clan in this time unexpected sorrow. Deb
Ronnie and I were so sad to learn that Jimmy had passed away. We were talking about how much fun we used to have playing volleyball with everyone at Endicott park. Although we didn’t stay in touch with each other over the years, we will always think of him with fond memories. Our deepest condolences to his family, Patti and Ron DeBie Harrison, Maine
My thoughts and prayers are with the whole family. Please take comfort in knowing that Jim is resting in the loving arms of our Lord.
Dear Deminski family, James, You’re always close beside us, in everything we do. You were our greatest treasure. God’s gift to us was you. We think of you as living, in the hearts of those you touched. For nothing loved is ever lost and you were loved so much. SADLY MISSED & LOVED BY FAMILY & FRIENDS
It is hard to put into words the sorrow I feel. Jim and I shared many years together and I have some wonderful memories. I have spent the last several days revisiting those memories with fondness. I believe that God has welcomed Jim with open arms and has granted him peace. I send my deepest sympathy to the Deminski family. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
