I was saddened to hear of Jim's passing. It was a pleasure and honor to have played against or with him. Jim always had kind words on or off the ice. You"ll be missed! My condolences to the family.
We have fond memories of Jim as the principal at River Heights school in Dorchester.He was always accessible,and helpful. He was a great role model for our daughter Char. Jim was a strong supporter of Broadway Singers and will be missed in the audience. Our sincerest sympathy to Jim's family.

Help me out with those overhead goal reviews would ya ;). Rest in peace Duds my condolences and best wishes to your family your favorite goalie to score on Tom huff and puff
Saddened to read of Jim's passing. Jim always gave his best on the ice, on the ball diamond and to the teaching profession. His quick wit and good sense of humour brought laughter to the locker room.
Jim Duddy was the first Principal to hire me back in 1998. As my Principal, he was kind, supportive and always had a great sense of humour about our experiences at Central Senior Elementary School. May it comfort his family to know, that Jim inspired a young teacher, 18 years ago, to "not work so hand" and he remains a very positive memory as a mentor.
I was very sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was my principal at River Heights School. He was also my mother's principal at Biddulph School. I enjoyed my time with him and he was a positive role model for me. He took the time to come to my Retirement party which I really appreciated. You have my deepest sympathy. My thoughts are with you.
So sorry to hear the sad news Michelle. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
sorry to hear of Jim's passing he was a great teacher and always enjoyed his classes at Biddulph school my thoughts and prayers are with your family
I am so sorry to hear of your loss Michelle. I can't believe that you have lost a dear friend and soul mate. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Sharon
Jim, this is too soon. I will always cherish your comradeship on the hockey team for those many years. You can take an earned rest while we take the next shift. Ron
You were such an amazing fellow. We didn't know you well...but your love and support of family was so obvious. You will be missed but not forgotten.
