This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Jimmy Brozzetti who was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania on June 3, 1985 and passed away on Feb. 6, 2006 at the age of 20. We will remember him forever.
Jimmy died alone at 3:10 pm on Monday Feb 6,2006 in a single car accident. He was traveling back to school at Lycoming College when he swerved to miss a moving automobile, lost control of his car and hit a tree engulfing the car in flames. Jimmy was killed instantly upon impact. I thank God everyday for that. At least there was no pain and suffering. I don’t think I could go on if I knew Jimmy suffered we can barely believe that such a horrible thing has happen to us. This has devastated our family and friends. Jimmy was loved by so many and he left a hole in everyone’s hearts our world will never be the same without him in it.
Jimmy was a young man who had so much to give and so much to do. But in the short 20 years he was here. He did so much. He loved life and enjoyed everything about it. Jimmy would walk into a room and everyone would just smile as he always had a big smile and, his dimples were beautiful. When I think I will never see that beautiful smile or hear that voice again I die over and over again. But knowing with each new day I’m one more day closer to being with him, puts some sunshine in this life of mine. I miss him so much, some days I feel that I don’t have a heart anymore and I’m dead inside.
I would like to think that Jimmy is safe now with his Nonie and Popie and, living his life with God. I think of him sitting on top of a mountain so green and beautiful. I’m sure God had a special plan for him. In life Jimmy always put everyone first, he always took care of his friends. They always could count on him for anything. His sister and cousin where his best friends. Dina and Jimmy had a special bond, even with 5 years between them. They would talk almost daily and tell each other all their secrets. I remember when he was only 7 years old and someone called his sister a name. He punched him right in the face and told him his sister was a princess and, no one will ever call her any bad names again. Dina was the best sister to him and loved him opening.
Since Jimmy died my family and friends have been a great support to Dina and myself and I would like to thank them all, from the bottom of my heart for all their help. They listen to me everyday and they walk me through the long hard days.
A year without My Jimmy is like no life at all. I know he would want me to live life to the fullest, and I try to go on for him. But somedays the road is just too rough. So on this First Anniversary of your death all I can say is WHY?? And tell Jimmy I Love him so, but that is something Jimmy always knew. We never hung up the phone, or he never left the house without a kiss and, an I Love you Mom. So today I will tell my son over and over again I Love you Jimmy, and can’t wait until we are together again, please say close to me everyday and night.
I will keep your memory alive and you will forever live in my hearts and the hearts of those who loved you.
May you be the sun that shines on us everyday and the stars we see when we look to the sky. May you walk by our sides each and every minute of the day. You are so loved and missed by all. May God give you a big hug everyday from me until I can give you one. Please watch over your sister, cousins and friends. Keep the them safe I Love You Jimmy Mom
TO SOME I MAY BE NOTHING MORE THAN A DISTANT MEMORY.
MY LIFE ON EARTH IS OVER NOW, BUT DO YOU REMEMBER ME?
I KNOW I LEFT WITH OUT WARNING, BUT GOD'S WORK FOR ME HERE WAS THROUGH.
PLEASE DON'T TRY TO STOP THE THOUGHTS OF ME BECAUSE I NEVER WILL OF YOU.
SOME MAY HEAR OR SPEAK MY NAME AND VANISH THE THOUGHT OF ME, WHY IS IT NOW THAT I AM GONE NO ONE STOPS TO SEE.
I'M CLOSER TO YOU NOW THAN I EVER WAS BEFORE, I LOVE YOU ALL JUST THE SAME AND WILL FOREVERMORE.
SO,PLEASE DON'T LET MY MEMORIES SLOWLY FADE AWAY... FOR I'M STILL INSIDE YOUR HEART YOU SEE,WHERE I WILL ALWAYS STAY.
DON'T THINK OF ME AS GONE FOREVER BECAUSE SOMEDAY WE'LL MEET AGAIN.
KEEP ME CLOSE INSIDE YOUR HEART UNTIL GOD TELLS YOU WHEN.
YOU MAY BE THERE FOR MANY YEARS NO ONE EVER KNOWS, SO LET MY MEMORY STAY ALIVE AS THE LOVE INSIDE YOU GROWS.
SOME OF YOU MAY WONDER WHY GOD CALLED FOR ME SOONER THAN YOU'D PLANNED.
BUT PLEASE DON'T BE MAD AT HIM,FOR I'M IN THE MASTER'S HANDS.
PLEASE REMEMBER ME WITH LOVE AND WITH EACH TEAR THAT YOU CRY, REMEMBER I'M BESIDE YOU STILL, THAT'S FOREVER WHERE I WILL BE.
"ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG" Accidents happen, that's what they all say. That's why you are gone, oh so far away.
A young life lost, to great heaven above. Flying gracefully away like a beautiful dove.
A handsome guy, with a thousand great friends. None of whose hearts will ever mend.
A bright young kid , always wearing a smile. Always willing to sacrifice and go the extra mile.
Now he is safe, and away from all harm. But we will all miss your amazing charm.
He is whispering to us now , for he is a bird. So everyone listen, do not utter a word.
We all have a new angel, who has so much to give. He will shower us with love and tell us to live.
Jimmy we all miss you. its been to long Because it is true, "ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG
" Missing My Son Jimmy "

To lose a child is the most shocking and devastating tragedy that happen could ever happen to a parent. My heart is split in two, one side broken and the other left with Jimmy. The suffering is endless; my heart was ripped from my body. My love for Jimmy is so deep and I miss him terribly. The special bond between a mother and son is so precious and can never be broken. I will carry him in my heart until I take my last breath
Jimmy and I had a closeness that was truly special that not all parents get to experience and I am so fortunate to have had that connection with him. He brought so much joy and happiness to my life. I miss our chats about everything in his life we spent a lot of time together and I feel so privileged that everything Jimmy wanted to spend so much time with me. I admired about Jimmy, from his charming wit, but also the tender kind gentle soul he was and his zest for life He made me so proud of the young man he became. Jimmy was a significant part of my life and I am grateful for the many times and laughs we shared that are so precious and the cherished memories I will carry with me forever.
My dream was to see Jimmy get married. My heart aches for his sister Dina and the incredible loss she has suffered and also must live with everyday. Their love for each other was unconditional. Jimmy would have made a wonderful father and uncle he loved children.
I am heart broken and my hopes and dreams have been shattered, leaving a huge void in my heart that can never be repaired. No one can mend a broken heart. A huge part of me died that day with him. The emptiness is enormous and devastating. I miss and love him more today than yesterday. I take comfort though in knowing I will be reunited with him again and we will continue where we left off. I love you my sweet Jimmy. He was my hero , the love of my life, he was my son.
Dreaming about the Yankee in Heaven
A wonderful life, full of strife. Young , talented and intelligent,gone in instant. The strain of going on how do we endure such pain? Sometimes I think I'll go insane. But God tells us, he will not give us, anything we cannot endure. Does he believe in me, more than I? Light a candle, pray for me For Jimmy for eternity. What's over there? Does anyone ever stop to care. Is this life more than I can bare? I have many questions, if I dare. But first a hug & kiss from my angel Jimmy, whom I know is waiting there.
Were you one of the Lucky Ones?
Did you get to meet the one that lived every day as if it were his last?
Did you see that smiling face, did you hear his infectious laugh?
Did you know the one that had a hug for even the ones that fussed at him?
Did you ever go somewhere and know when the life of the party arrived?
Did you know the one that could make the best of the worst situation?
Did you feel like you were a special person around him?
Did you ever feel so loved?
Were you one of the lucky ones... THAT GOT TO MEET MY SON
All that we can know about those we have loved and lost, is that they would wish us to remember them with a more intensified realization of thier reality. What is essential does not die but clarifies. The highest tribute to the dead is not grief but gratitude.

Jimmy's Rookie Year
The angel league drafted you just one year ago The Lord called you to His team and you had to go. Our hearts were broken, we didn't know the reason You left us far too soon for your rookie season.
As a rookie player on the greatest team of all You must be very happy when you hear "let's play ball". Flying around the diamond and touching every base We can only imagine the big smile on your face.
We know that you're happy and no longer feeling pain One day we'll sit in Heaven's bleachers, to watch you play again. Cheering for our Jimmy, yelling out your name Watching you, Jimmy, playing in Heaven's game.
Until the day we're together, patiently we'll wait To join you on Heaven's field, past the pearly gate. As the day approaches, that you left us, Jimmy dear We are all hoping that you had the best Rookie year

JIMMY & MY DAD (JOHN NAUGHTON 1/1923-5/1993) MY BROTHER FRANK JOINTED THEM 7/17/07 ~Wind Beneath My Wings~
It must have been cold there in my shadow, to never have sunlight on your face. You were content to let me shine, thats your way, you always walked a step behind.
So I was the one with all the glory, while you were the one with all the strength. A beautiful face without a name~for so long, a beautiful smile to hide the pain.
Did you ever know that your my hero, and everything I would like to be. I can fly higher then an eagle, 'cause you are the Wind Beneath My Wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed, but I've got it all here in my heart. I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it, I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that your my hero, And everything I would like to be... I can fly higher then an eagle, 'cause you are the Wind beneath my wings.
Fly, Fly, Fly away... You let me Fly so high Oh Fly, Fly so high against the sky, so high I almost touch the sky.. Thank you..thank you....thank GOD for you ~The Wind Beneath My Wings~
