James T.
Sweeney
May 13, 1946 — Jun 29, 2025
Sweeney, James T., 79, of Winchester, formerly of Everett, passed away peacefully on June 29, 2025. Jim was the devoted husband of the late Jacquelyn "Jackie" Sweeney for nearly 40 years and beloved father of James H. Sweeney and his wife Jessica of East Greenbush, NY. Jim's most cherished role was as grandfather to his two grandsons, James and Joseph. He treasured every moment spent with them, especially sharing his love of Cape Cod and the ocean. He was always excited to hear stories about boating, swimming, sailing camp, and the tales of fishing adventures.
Jim is also survived by his brother, Edward, nieces Caitlin and Kara, and nephews Jim and Jason.
Jim now rests in peace with his wife Jackie, parents Catherine and James, brother Joseph, and sisters Mary Claire and Kathleen.
