To Jimmie's family,

So sorry to hear of Jimmie's passing,
I will keep him and you in my prayers.
I was a friend of his from his youth at WORC. He was a very special person with a great sense of humor and good heart. I am saddened by his passing but will always have the best of memories of him.

I'm sure he and Dude are up there making them smile in heaven.
