This is truly an unbelievable loss. Jimmy you will be missed so much because Gene and you have been friends for 35 years or more and have done everything together from playing cards and cribbage, fishing, hunting, drinking, working, etc. Jimmy was in our lives during important moments such as losing my mother he was her hero and a pallbearer, he happen to be with us March 24, 2018 when we received a call about genes brother. I can't remember a time that we were all playing cards having fun with all of our friends. I will never forget Jimmy's one of a kind laugh.
Carol, Shellie, Shannon Jennifer and all of his kids and family you will be in our prayers and we will pray for comfort and peace

To the family: I've only known Jimmy because of his sister shelly. But what I recall is a nice guy the day we met. We laughed a lot and shared some conversations of things we have encountered in our lives of our travels. Meaning that we laughed about a lot of stupid stuff we has done.
Hopefully that's what everyone else says too. He was a good guy, not very many of those left around. I am sure he will be missed by all. And to the family, I am so sorry about your loss, and hope that you all have found some peace to carry on. Shelly... I am truly sorry, please contact me soon... your friend...steve
