Read MoreMany memories were had over the years. However, my all time favorite was at mine and my husband Tommy's wedding. Jimmy caught my garder belt and Crystal caught my bouquet of flowers. It was truly meant to be. Than the next year the two of them were married. This is always the beautiful story I tell everytime we think of the two of them. Now, be together forever you will be missed. Love yall, Jen

This world will never be the same without you in it. I'm grateful to have been able to call you my friend. Such a loyal, caring and awesome family man. You had a heart of gold, and didn't dare take no crap from anyone nor did you let your friends go through this life feeling alone. I will miss our hour long phone conversations dearly.

Paul and Cathy, I’m so sorry for your loss. Though I never had the pleasure of meeting him I know he comes from a solid foundation based on love. And he was a Dallas Cowboys fan. Had to be great. Praying for your family.

I will always think of Jimmy as a little boy because I remember when he was born. Such a kind guy and great father and son who will be sorely missed.
