You have my most heartfelt condolences. Jimmy was a good friend who enriched my life. I will miss him but will always remember the wonderful times we shared.
I am saddened to learn of Jimmy’s death. I went to Valley Sprpings with him when you all lived in Royal Pines near my grandmother, Georgia Lance. He used to help her sometimes do yard work and she really appreciated it. I know that was a long time ago but I remember it fondly. My condolences to all his family. Sincerely,

I sincerely appreciate and am humbled by the credit that you have given me…But if not for you, there would not have been a Jimmy. You brought Jimmy into this world,you nurtured him and guided him through his youth,you gave him to us to love and respect and you have been behind him throughout his short but very important adulthood. For this Geri, I thank you. You, Jim, Sherri and Thomas will always be Family.
