Dear Caputo Family,
I have known Jimmy since we attended Our Lady of Mt. Carmel School in Orange together in the 1940s. We graduated Orange High School in 1957 and I last saw him at our 50th class reunion at the Ramada in East Hanover in October 2007. Although we drifted apart in recent years I always counted him as a good friend. He was a good, honest and decent family man. Please accept my deepest apologies because I was unable to attend his wake as I was on vacation in Europe and only found out of his passing from a high school friend upon my return. And please accept my deepest and sincerest sympathies for your loss.
Linda and Family,
I was so sorry to hear about your dad. I have so many memories of us growing up - and being at your home. Your dad was such a good man. I am sorry I couldn't make the wake but have keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.
The Caputo Family,
We have beautiful memories of your family and ours growing up in East Hanover. May God bless each and every one of you. ~Harry and Anne Esposito

I am very sorry to hear about your father and husband's sudden passing. I have many fond memories of growing up on Fay Drive and will never forget Mr. Caputo whistling to the kids - Maria, Danny, Linda, Valerie and Carma - to come in at night! Just this summer I had the opportunity to catch up with Mr. Caputo and his new wife for a few minutes and he expressed to me how happily married he was and encouraged me to do the same! I'll be praying for you. God Bless, Dan M. "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles." 2 Corinthians 1:2-4
To Valerie & Family,
Our deepest sympathy for your loss. Our thoughts & prayers are with you.

couldn't make the wake. He was a great man and good
friend, we will miss him very much. Our prayers are with
you. Frank LaMorte and Family.
Sandy & Family,
