Jenny, I know it's been a struggle for you this year, and as hard as is it to lose a loved one, its a blessing when God takes away their pain and suffering. Jimmy fought hard and pushed past the time the Doctors gave him by carrying on his life and taking care of his family. Before going to be with the Lord, he wanted nothing more than to take care of his family and insure you didn't have to worry about things around the house, he wanted you to be situated and he did that. Jimmy was a hard working, good man who loved his family very much. His family and friends will miss him. God Bless you and your family. Call us if you need anything.
