Dear Muldoon Family,
Over the last 10 years, I was fortunate enough to umpire several baseball games with Jim. We would always have a story or two to share and enjoy a few laughs. The games were a pleasure to \.work.\. Jim was a really nice guy and I will miss him.

Jim will be sorely missed……he was a true asset to our Company HH Perkins Co for over 45 years. Always with a smile, Jim brightened up every day and was not just a friend but part of our Family. I have also had the pleasure of umpiring with Jim and yes, he could even brighten up a slow moving game. Well liked by all, Jim was one of a kind. God Bless!

My prayers and thoughts are with you and your son. I taught a basket weaving course at Hamden Adult Ed. for many years, Jim was always so helpful when I went to Perkins for supplies. I would always see him in town and he would stop and talk.
I had the pleasure of working many baseball games with Jim over the years. A really good guy and umpire. Rest in Peace my friend. Bill Klein
