Mr. Pooler would come into my medical practice and always brought such a bright light of happiness with him. I was thinking of him today (I often think about my patients since leaving the practice) and decided to Google him and found his obituary. I’m so sorry this is a year late but sending love to the Pooler family. You are all such a blessing!!

Our condolences to the Pooler family. We truly lost one of the good ones ! But at least we had the honor of spending time with Theresa and Jim. Many many great memories from the early days at Hofs Hut drinking bloodyMary's. The fourth of July BBQs on Sylvia's patio to the many dinners together drinking good wine ! No one had a bigger heart than Jim! If you had to sum up Jim in one word it would be " Genuine ".

Carole and I will truly miss him !

Are prayers are with you !

Dear Virginia and the whole Pooler Family,
So terribly sorry to hear about your father's passing. I am glad that I had the occasion to meet him. He was a very gracious, welcoming soul. My heart goes out to you all. I know how hard it is to lose a beloved parent. Please take care of one another and carry on the love...
Wishing you peace and light,
Boni Peluso
