Not sure what to say?

Jimmy was the funniest co worker i have ever worked with. He was such a loving down to earth guy but always had something quick to say! He was so funny and could cheer me up with just one look. He took me in while he was training me and we became close- almost like family. I will always remember jimmy and the funny things he would tell me. He was an honest man and was a very intellectual person. He was so good to talk to and would give the best advice. I will miss him very much and will...

Jimmy was the apple of his mother´s eye. He was a kind and caring human being. He will be so missed.

Jimmy was a wonderful young man who was always very helpful and a true gentleman. He was a valuable and contributing member of Henry Clay High School and a great neighbor to me. Jimmy often my helped care for my dogs. I spent many great evenings having dinner with Jimmy, as well as his mom and dad. He was just as hospitable as his terrific mother. Jimmy will be missed by all who knew him well. R.I.P. my dear friend and I hope to meet you in the great beyond.

Thank you Jimmy aka "Bob" for all the laughs, love, drinks and good times in Lexington. Downtown will not be the same without you.
