They Did Everything Together

We had the pleasure of meeting these adorable, kind, little boys in kindergarten. So many wonderful memories of all the sports, vacations, holidays, first communion, birthday parties, college visits, and just hanging out. The boys were always a pleasure when they were at our home and never wore out their welcome. Their love of sports, especially college sports and they would proudly wear their fitted hats with all the cool logos that started a craze amongst all the kids. Agile Sam playing second base and Jim catching displaying his clutch throws that we would see again as QB in high school. Seeing your son so excited at the beginning of the school year when he learns that either Jim or Sam are in his class. The boys often accompanied us to our friend’s house and they always left a lasting impression of this unique bond they shared and their contagious wit. Sam would ask what we were having for dinner and respond “oh we like that”. Going to IHOP and Jim and Sam in unison saying “we like coffee” and would have a coffee with 10 sugars in it, drink two sips pretending to be a grownup. After the many games we played, the family dinners out and Sam would like to make a concoction of everyone’s leftovers and eat it and have all the kids hysterically laughing. We would buy the chip assortments and would always save the Cheetos for Sam because he loved them. Jimmy quoting the Ringer and always asking us “would you like fries with that” and the boys would crack up. So silly and enjoyable memories. We love these boys and they are truly a light in our lives. Rest in peace Jim and Sam, we will miss you so much. To our dear friends Tom, Joanne, Jack, and Molly we love you and are here for you.
