James D. “Jamie” Crowley, age 72

James D. “Jamie” Crowley, age 72, of Quincy died peacefully Friday, January 9, 2025 at South Shore Hospital in Weymouth, surrounded by his loving family.

Jamie was born, raised, and educated in Quincy. He was a graduate of Quincy Vocational Technical High School, Class of 1972. Jamie spent the majority of his life in Quincy, Braintree, and North Weymouth and enjoyed calling the South Shore home.

Upon graduation, Jamie began working at JB Sash & Door as a custom window and door maker. He took pride in his lifelong career with the company and the many friendships made. They were affectionately known as his JB family.

Jamie was the life of the party and loved to make people laugh. He loved to be by the water and watch a good sunrise or sunset. He treated everyone like family and was generous beyond measure. He enjoyed going out to eat with his family, sharing shrimp cocktail, and indulging in prime rib (end cut only). He also loved to cook for his family, especially sauce and meatballs.

Beloved son of the late Rose D. (Richardi) and James H. Crowley.

Devoted brother of Colleen R. Gould and her husband Daniel of Plymouth.

Loving uncle of Lucia V. Kelleher and her husband Sean of Bridgewater, Julianna Gould and her partner Dedric Wilson of California.

Cherished great uncle of Emilia Kelleher and Gioia Kelleher.

Jamie is also survived by many cousins, his close companion Crystal Kelly, and the extended Pete’s family.

Memorial Visiting Hours will be held at the Sweeney Brothers Home for Funerals, 1 Independence Avenue, Quincy, on Wednesday, January 14, from 9:30 – 11:30 a.m. Relatives and friends are invited to attend. To conclude the visitation, a brief prayer service will be conducted at 11:30 a.m.

For those who wish, a glass may be raised in Jamie’s memory next time you pass Pete’s Bar and Grille.

  • I have known Jamie since 1990, he was one of the first people I met at the brick grille. He was always nice to me and we would sit and talk. He knew my oldest daughter and her husband and my granddaughter very well. Over the years working different jobs I have worked, he would show up. I am currently a bartender at pete’s and I saw him a lot. I shall miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
