Kathy,

We were saddened to learn of Jimmy's passing. We know he is in heaven singing in the heavenly choir. It's been year's since we've been at Hilton, but he will be missed. Our condolences and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Kathy, Tom and I are so sad to hear that you've lost Jimmy. He was a wonderful father, husband, and Christian. I know that your friends and family are a comfort to you. You and the girls are in our prayers. Tom and Elizabeth Koerner

Kathy and family,
Jimmy will be sorely missed by so many people. My sons and myself are just a few of the many lives that he touched with his kindness and love. I have many fond memories of him that I will hold dear to my heart as I know you will too. I will hold onto them until the day we are reunited in Heaven! May God hold you close during this difficult time! We will be praying for you! Billie, Josh, and Chase Hetrick

Dear Kathy and family,
I am so sorry of your great loss. Jimmy would come into the office and always stop and say hello. He always was such a joy. He loved our LORD and he loved you. May our LORD wrap HIS strong arms around you and hold you ever so close.

Kathy and family, Carrie and I are saddened by your great loss. But Hieaven is a richer place as Jimmy's spirit is now a part of the Heavenly Choir. He was such a prince of a guy. Both of you have been two of the finest church musicians we have ever known. Your love, commitment and grace have touched us all. Our prayers surround you. Love, Stan and Carrie Hicks

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Kathy and Family,
Jimmy was a true Christian who lived and led by Christ's example. His life was centered around Christ and living for him. Jimmy's witness reflected Christ's love and he has blessed my life and others. He was someone I could trust and count on and was there to serve the Lord, even when he was so sick. I will truly miss him, his smile, and the way he cared. Jimmy will always hold a special place in my heart and life and be remembered for his Sincere Kindness and...

Jimmy was a wonderful person and will be missed by all who were blessed to call him friend, brother, son, husband and father. I will always remember his excitement when they started the Praise and Worship service at Hilton Baptist and his gift of singing that he shared so willingly. I will fondly remember the last time that I heard him sing on Nov. 8th when he sang Live Like You are Dying. He sang as though he had so much to live for and he did. Rejoice that he is singing today in heaven. My...
