We all miss you and love you Hope you’re up there having a good time with our brother James grandparents You’re loving ex-wife Rhonda your niece and nephews and your aunts and uncles that have passed
Paula and I send our condolences to the family. Jimmy and I were friends for over 40 years and he was like a brother.
Jimmy, I remember when you were 17 before you and Rhonda were married. You were sitting in my back seat as we were driving to Tampa. You had us all laughing with your silly stories. I see why Rhonda loved you so much. You would show off your muscles doing pull ups and walking on your hands. You will be missed, but at least you are with Rhonda again.
Love you brother.
