I new Jimmy since he was just a boy and he has always been a strong individual physically and mentally and dedicated to whatever he put his mind to. I am sad to hear of his passing and my prayers go out to his family and especially Johnny his dad.

Jimmy Rollo was the nicest, kindest man you could know..We that knew him from a child can only grieve at his passing. Where ever he saw me, he hugged and kissed me and told me he loved me....
What a pleasure to know we will always have his sweetness in our hearts. Much love to Johnny and Louise, that raised him and all his kind family.

I was very sorry to learn of Jimmy's passing. I worked with him at NOAA for many years; Jimmy was a great observer. I will always appreciate what he did for us during the NED experiments in the N. Atlantic 2001-2003. The sea turtle community owes him a lot for all those efforts. My thoughts are with his grieving family.
