I'M so sorry for you lost in the 1980s I was employed by him in the 80s at Robert Crist RV he was my boss and was so understanding and helped me so much in the RV world. His son Jimmy c Maher Jr was my best friend a spent time together in so many ways and met one day when he showed up at his Dad's on traveled from Jersey
up on his sportster
back in the 1980 from Jersey I fell in love with his Spirit and his kindnes he
had become the best of friends a true friend I'm tired to stay in touch with you him but he had settled down with another girl think they married but we still remanded friends over the decades I had returned back to NC he was always on my mind u just Don't forget such real and compassionate friends he was years go by but I lost contact with him since 2016 tried hard today I locate him Thur his dad, Internet has changed so much but every 2 years we would speak and remember our friend ship his father was such a great and happy to always tell me we're I could locate Jimmy which I hope that someone can tell me of his where about and we were good friends and never wanted to loose contact even if our life's have changed and I loved him so much He is wanted to spend a life together but many obstacles were in the way. If I t wasn't for his Dad helping me so much when I showed up out west from the East and will never forget his friendship . I'm sorry for your lost but if his son which is my age 59 I believe we both need a friend and I can help Thur the heart ache with I know how lost I have been since I lost my own dad in 2017. So I didn't mean to ramble on I just always knew his father keep me informed of what his is doing in life and maybe he needs a friend Thur this is tried 2 years to locate Jimmy and his Dad always let me know of his where about. So if anyone can let me know where to find him my # is 910 -584 2647 and remember my prayers are with you with the family I had no I did if
tried searching for his dad's phone for the last 3 yaers and so far can't reach him or his son. So I am pretty sure this is his Dad whole thing is a good time gave me a new start out there withut any career job. a great son as he has gotten for me to start a new life ! Such a great man and a great friend. So if anyone knows of his son Jimmy Christopher Maher Jr please left him know I've been searching for him and would like to catch up, yeah I know his been married several times but our friendship with true friend not only his dad.

I am the one and only James Christopher Maher Jr, Son of James Sr., born and raised in N.J., relocted to Arizona as well, My father was incredibly an " INCOMPREHENSIBLE" human,, he taught me to spell that word at 3 years of age, he taught me as much as he could as he wanted me to prevail positively informed upgraded to include how to run a business, mechanical skills, machinist skills, rebuilding motors transmissions or anything broken mechanically as well as fatherly family values my entire life as well as his.. Words cannot describe the LOVE he had for everybody and anybody whom came in contact with him. Chevys, Classic Cars,Harleys, Snap On tools, Camping , RV ing,, being IRISH,, all he enjoyed as well as carrying on the MAHER name as we discussed often even at an early age,, by naming my son James Christopher Maher III.. Also all of my MAHER uncles, Dads brothers,, were incredible as well as his mother, my NANA, Christine Obrien Maher whom migrated here from Ireland.. His spirit lives on strong in our hearts especially in the male genes of this family... MISS YOU DAD I LOVE YOU,, AMEN

Seamus, had been in Ireland on vacation. He brought me a copy of my mother's family crest and information on the most notable of the family members. This was so unexpected. I will always think of him in a very special way. Hank, as well, truly liked Seamus.
