    Jimmy Valdastri…..what a true friend you were. So kind. so generous, so giving. I will always remember you as my best friend in the turbulent times we shared, back when we didn’t know where our lives would lead us. Those of us who knew you, loved you deeply. I will remember you to Leilani and Michelle. They loved you as much as I. Rest in peace, my friend. You are missed.

    My dear Jimmy, I’ll always remember the day we met and your kind smile of acceptance. You were fun and full of joy. You were kind and loving, and I’ll always hold you in my heart. God bless you, Jimmy.
