I first met Jimbo when my husband and I were invited to visit the Fort Walton area by his cousins Nancy Patrie and Chip Haring. At the family gathering, he took my hand, looked me straight in the eye (coming from NJ, I was not used to this but it mesmerized me) and softly said....."Glad to finally meet you, Miss Betty" You might say he had me at "Hello" Will always miss you and we both love your sweet southern style, Jimbo! Love, Betty and John Magers

This also was one of my mom's ( Ceil Hilburn) favorite people. I heard many stories about "Jimbo" as I grew up.. My thoughts and prayers are with the family!
