It’s very special to see how many lives my brother touched in his 68 years. Thank you all for your kind and supportive messages. We hope you can join us Thursday at his memorial service.

Sending my deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Jimmy D’. I knew him from Giant Eagle, he helped me through a few grievances (union) and won them with his help and I also considered him a friend. Always a jokester and smiling. That’s how I will remember him. Rest well with the Angels.

Save me a seat and I’ll see you when I get there. I love you deeply and will miss you terribly, my dear friend.
