I remember him always pickin' on my daddy "Snooky" for being so damn short... he also built him a badass BBQ pit many many years ago. Rest in Peace Mr. Jimmy.

I have known Jimmy for 30 years . Jimmy did all our dirt work at Famcor Oil. We became good friends thru the years and shared many a lunch together. After he retired we still kept in touch. He will be missed by many . Won’t ever forget his smile or that cigar in his mouth. My deepest condolences to his family. Jimmy

Jimmy and Nancy were “back door neighbors” of my sister Gwen and her husband Kenneth Anderson for many years. They shared much laughter and some tears as well. The good times surely outweighed the bad though. Deer season each year was a high point to them all. Trying to be the first to kill a buck was the big competition. The enjoyment of getting out in the woods was best of all. Three wheelers or four wheelers racing, getting stuck and other mishaps littered their stays and made bright laughing days. Jimmy was always willing to help. He was a good man and much loved by all who knew him. He will now join his beloved wife and the “back door neighbors” in the afterlife. I can hear them all laughing now………
