Uncle Jimmy will be greatly missed. It was a great privilege to have had such an amazing uncle in my life. He could always bring a smile out of you on even a bad day. I've never met someone with such a loving, caring, genuine heart. Jimmy was extremely selfless and loved doing for others. He was always going on walks to the store to bring back coloring books and toys for his nieces and nephews. I will never forget all the fun I had with him when I was growing up. I could always count on Uncle Jimmy to play games with me and always make me laugh! I will always be his "little scooper". May he rest in peace.

I'm sorry for your loss. I was very surprised and sad; when I heard that he passed away the other day. Even though I didn't know him personally; I styill considered him to be a very good friend of mine. He would always say hi to me if I acknowledged him; whenever he would walk past my work area at the workshop. I will always remember him; walkling around the workshop wearing a black cowboy hat.
