I have so many fond memories of my dad. I have thought about them a lot lately. I thank him for always taking good care of me. Being his only daughter, I always felt like his "little princess." I will miss you dad.

To Barbara and Family,
May the Lord carry and comfort you during these difficult times. Jimmy will be greatly missed by many. Just know that you now have a very special angel watching over you.
To Those Whom I Love And Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that I have had so many years
I gave you my love, you can only guess
How much you gave me in happiness
I thank you for the love each have shown
But now it is time I travelled on alone
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It is only for a while that we must part
So bless the memories in your heart
I will not be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you cannot see or touch me, I will be near
And if you listen with your heart, you will hear
All of my love around you soft and clear Then, when you must come this way alone
I will greet you with a smile and welcome you home.
Jimmy was such a kind and generous man.
He is flying with the angels in heaven.
