Helping James M. Viola II, lay to rest.

James M. Viola II was a quiet man who lived a quiet life. He dealt with many challenges in the remainder of his years. Our brother caught a heart virus in 2018 that would affect him throughout the remainder of his life. In January, he received 3 stents in the main artery of his heart, leaving him with congestive heart failure and COPD. While struggling with that, he found out that he had cirrhosis of the liver. (And he quoted, "I'm not even a party animal!")

This last week, James ended up with a blood clot in his lungs and issues with his kidneys, making it difficult for him to breathe on his own. Today (2/22/25), James was taking a nap and left us peacefully, joining our angels and family.

James is survived by his 3 siblings: Danielle, Korin, and Joey. Joey was the closest, like a pea to the pod that he and James shared. They spent a great amount of time with one another, inseparable if you may say. They knew each other well, could read each other's minds, and finish each other's sentences.

During this time, we are pleadingly asking for help to lay our brother to peace. Any donation, whether big or small, will help greatly. Our brother, James M. Viola II, will be cremated.

Thoughts, prayers, and memories are welcomed. Anything received is a blessing and cherished. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
