Dear Uncle Jimmy, there's not a day that goes by when I don't think of you. I remember seeing you outside of Park View, lighting fireworks with you, laughing, having cookouts, the whole nine. May you rest in peace and think about me time to time like I think about you. I love you. Sincerely, Rj,,,,,

What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. My deepest sympathy to all the family. RIP Jimmy.
