    Dorothy and family, you have our deepest sympathies. Jim was one of a kind… and boy did he make me laugh. Working and hanging out with him at Larry’s was truly a blessing.

    Mr. C, you were one of the best people I’ve ever known. Thank you for making us laugh and your kindness. I hope you don’t mind that I’ve stolen your “peanut butter” line over the years! You will be missed.

    Mrs. C and Family,

    We were very sad to hear the news of Mr. C’s passing. He was such an important person in my life – my 2nd dad during my years in Quincy. He will truly be missed. May God watch over your family during your time of need. With our sincere sympathy.

    To the Costigan Family,

    Mr. C was one of the most kind and gentle men I ever met. He was a friend to so many students for so many years. Everone loved Mr. and Mrs. C. They made Quincy so much more like home for us all. Larry’s was another home to us college students. Going to Larry’s was more like going to hang out at a friends basement after school and Mr. C more like that friend’s dad than a typical college bar. A home away from home and a dad away from your dad. It has been many years but I still miss walking in there and seeing Mr. C behind the bar…or trimming the roast beef. He was a gentle friend. Many of us will never forget him, Larry’s or Mrs. C. Love and best wishes to the Costigan family. Truly the passing of part of an indelible memory. A small part of all of our history, identity is gone.

    Dear Mrs. C and Costigan Family,

    I am so sorry to hear about Mr C. The favorite part of my college experience was hanging out at Larry’s and you and Mr C. were the main reason for that. It was a home away from home. Thank you for the great memories, he will be truly missed… one of kind.

    God Bless and Peanut Butter

    To the Costigan Family, sorry for your great loss. I had the great fortune of working at Larry’s for Mr. C and if he taught me anything it was “Peanut Butter”. I’m I am truly sorry for your loss.

    We will never forget the good times we had at Larry’s playing shuffleboard & all the good food & friendly atmosphere. Dorothy, you & Jim made everyone feel welcome & almost like a home away from home. Ron & I felt like we were always welcome when the both of you were around. We are truly sorry for your loss. Please know that you will be in our prayers and that Jim is in a better place now. The good Lord knows what is best for all of us & he will take care of us. We have to keep the faith. God Bless you & the family. In sincere sympathy Ellis & Ron Hubble

    My thoughts are with your family. Jim will truely be missed. There is not a singal memory of my college years that did not in some way center around Larry’s and Jim telling us to stay out of trouble.

    To the Dorothy and the entire family: My heart and prayers go out to you in this time of Sorrow. May God our loving Father wrap you all up in His arms and hold you close to to His heart. I know Jim will be missed by many including myself. He is probably upper there know looking down and saying have one for me and petitioning for the Cubs to make it to the World Series. Know you are all in Ellen’s and My prayers as you are all special to us. God bless!
