    Carolyn I was so sorry when I heard about Jimmy. Jimmy and I grew up together also like siblings. Most of my memories of early childhood was our Grandmother Grandma Monk chasing Jimmy up a tree with a switch. Wanted so bad to attend his service and visit with you but life sometimes gets in the way. My thoughts and prayers for you and your family.

    What a wonderful Christian man that loved his Lord and family, in that order. Jimmy was so proud of his children and absolutely adored his grandchildren and new great-grandchild. He was the wonderful, proud husband of Carolyn that he would walk to the end of Earth for. I know you have so many wonderful memories to hold on to. My thoughts are with you all.
