Not sure what to say?

Marion, I miss Jimmie very much. It is amazing how much kind and thoughtful he was on an almost daily basis.

He responded to hundreds of emails thru the years and i sorely miss his notes.

At least now, we can visualize him up there with dad, and all the other heros of Bastonge. Hell on Wheels!

Love, Rocky

General Leach was a great man and great friend. I only knew him since January 2008 when he came into the Beaufort Readiness Center and sat down and talked with me for over two hours, It was a memorable conversation that was followed by many more in my office over the past two years. He will be greatfully missed. Its a sad day for the city of Beaufort with General Leach not around. It was truly an Honor to meet such a extrodinary man. God bless the Leach family.

Marion, Jamie, Annabelle & Avie,

What do you say when you lose a love one that means the world to you? Fortunately you can look back at all the many wonderful times you had together in the past. Those memories will keep Jimmie close in your heart for as long as you live.

I was very impressed to read about Jimmie's military service. He was a husband and father to be proud of. Our great country could use more patriotic men like him.
