I worked with Jim when he was at Macom and had many found memories of him and would like to extend my most sincere condolences to the family.

Molly and family, I’m so sorry for your loss. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.. xoxo

Jim was a fantastic man and he will be greatly missed. I worked with Jim at MACOM for a few years and then worked with him as a customer. Jim is a true friend and his passing is devastating. One of his biggest passions and love was his family, he spoke of them often. May your soul be at peace. My sincere condolences to the family. We lost a great man.

A co-worker and friend for over twenty years, Jim always had high energy and a positive attitude. He was a gentleman who will be missed. My condolences to Kerry and his family.

I had the pleasure to meet Jim during our Sales Conference in Orlando last week. We have been working toguether for 10 years but never meet before because I live in Europe.
I am very sorry to have lost such a incredible person. He was always smiling, willing to help, proactive and happy. I will miss you a lot my friend. My condolences to his family. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Jim was a very special person. Having the opportunity to get to know Jim most recently upon my return to Richardson, I can truly say his constant smiles, enthusiasm for life, passion for work, and most importantly love of his family, as shared during our conversations, will always motivate me as the example of who we strive to be. My heart goes out to his family during this time, but know he’s with us all and in a very good place.

Jim was one of my favorite people in RF. The description above of him being a mentor and coach is perfect. We will all miss him.

My deepest sympathy to the Dempsey family for such a great loss.

I have known Jim for more than 9 years and as colleague with Rell for 4 years. Beside as a colleague he was also a good friend indeed. We both had a few moments together chatting about work and family during the recent conference in Orlando.

He will always be remembered and also a role model to many.

My deepest heartfelt condolences to Kerry and family.

I worked on and off with Jim for over the past 25 years. I considered him a great friend. I was lucky enough to spend some time with Jim the week before he passed. We were together at a sales conference. We shared a lot of laughs. He truly loved what he did and the people he worked with. He talked about his family quite a bit as well.

My deepest condolences go out to you, his family. May Jimmy rest forever in peace.

We were shocked to hear of Jimmy’s passing. Our condolences to the family. “When you lose a person you love so much, there is no pain so great as the memory of joy in your present grief. Remembering you all at this time.

We lost a great man last week.

My family sends its sincere condolences to your family….

I worked with Jim also when he was at MACOM and he will be dearly missed by all his great friends & colleagues in Ireland. The Irish had a special place in his heart and we will always remember him fondly. I last bumped into him last August with Molly at a game and will never forget his warm hospitality and great fun that day, my thoughts and sympathy go out to all his family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

My most sincere condolences. Jim and I were colleagues a Skyworks for several years. Since then, I enjoyed bumping into him when our travel paths crossed. We always had fun sharing stories about our kids.

I had the pleasure of working with Jim while at MACOM. He always had a pleasant attitude and great colleague to work with. His laugh was contagious. I am deeply saddened to hear of his loss. My sincere condolences to his wife and children. May his memory be eternal.

I knew Jim from when he worked at MACOM. He always had a positive attitude, a smile on his face and was willing to help out when needed. He was a great guy & will be missed by all he touched. My deepest sympathy to his family.

I had the pleasure of working with Jim at MACOM for a few years and then again as my customer/distribution partner at Richardson Electronics. Jim had many passions but his first and foremost was his family. He would speak of his wife Kerry and his three beautiful children often and always with pride. His laughter was contagious, his kindness was without limits. He is a tremendous loss for us all and will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to the family. We lost a great man.

A almost 30 year friendship based on Happily Married , kids the same age, large families, golf , and Cigars. When ever we got together it was the same talk on how our families were doing. To all Jim will be missed by many. And to paraphrase Seinfeld (which he enjoyed). Jimmy is hitting them straight down the fairways of heaven today

Dearest Kathy, Bob and family,
We were so saddened to hear about the passing of your brother, Jim. Although, we did not know him personally, he sounds just like the rest of the spirited Dempseys! What a loss! Please know you are all in our thoughts and prayers. We are so very sorry.
Sending you lots of love and heartfelt sympathy.
Risa and Joe

Jim was the best: kind, thoughtful, considerate, cheerful, always volunteering to help, and rightly proud of his family, he was a friend indeed. The pastor on that dreadful night in the hospital said he had never seen so many people waiting for a friend, other than family- little knowing how many others were messaging us for updates. Kerry, you and Molly and Brendan and Kyle have been incredibly strong and Jim would be proud of that, but please don’t hesitate to say if there is anything I (or anyone else) can do to help at any time. We will all miss him, he was truly a good man. My deepest condolences to you all.
Chris

I worked with Jim while at Richardson. I am so sorry to hear about his sudden passing…he was such a great guy. We would like to extend our condolences to his wife, family, and extended family.

Brian and Vicky Blackwell

Kerry,
Hope you remember me, we worked together at Trans National – Sue Feinberg reached out to me yesterday to tell me about the loss of your husband. I am so sorry & saddened to hear about this. My heart goes out to you & your children – you are all in my thoughts & prayers. Sue did say she has not seen you in over 20 years, but you still looked exactly the same. I’m sure just like Snow White like we would say.
Hugs to you!
Lauren

Dear Kerry, Molly, Brendan and Kyle.

I had the honor of knowing and working with Jim over various organizations through our business careers. What an exceptional man who was so proud of his family and the life you built together! He loved you all so deeply as well as your extended family. This loss is shocking and deeply painful but I know he will be sending you divine strength to help you through these difficult days ahead. We shared a lot of common interests, especially music and one particular band. I am grateful Jim became part of my life journey….
So here is one last lyric to share… “Goin’ home, goin’ home, by the riverside I will rest my bones,Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.
Fare thee well, my friend.

Jim was the best. I was devastated to hear of his passing. He truly was a great friend and colleague. He will be deeply missed by the small RF family. My condolences to his family and my thoughts and prayers are with them during this difficult time.

Jim was truly the definition of grace under fire. He was always the calm one in the storm. I can honestly say I do not ever recall seeing him when he was not smiling. He will be sorely missed by all those who his life touched. If the true measure of a life is the ones we leave behind, then Jim certainly led a wonderful life. Our deepest condolences to Kerry and the children.

I had the pleasure to know Jim for many years. I can’t say that we worked together, because whenever Jim was involved, it was never work. Jim was one of those people that everyone enjoyed being around. Quick with a sarcastic one liner or an old joke, but always delivered with a smile. My heartfelt sympathies to Kerry and the rest of the family. Jim was proud of his family. Jim will be thought of often and deeply missed.
