Not sure what to say?

I just heard this news today and am so sorry. My father was friends with Jimmy and worked with him at Rosie O'Gradys for many years. Jimmy was a great friend to my family, too, when my father passed away. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Robyn,

Steve and I deeply saddened to hear of Jimmy's accident. Even though we have not seen you in several years, we have tried to keep abreast of your lives through Jane. I know she is very proud of the life you and Jimmy have built together with your children. We have such happy memories of the times we shared while you were in Savannah. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, knowing that God is with you and will hold you in His Hands through this difficult time....

I knew Jimmy through my good friend Chris Falster, whom I flew with also in 2005. Jimmy always greeted me at the SouthEast Ramp in Sanford with a warm smile and invited me to fly with him several times. My kids enjoyed climbing on his airplanes when I brought them. My condolences, thoughts, and prayers go out to his wife and children for their loss. Take comfort in knowing he is with the Lord.

Dear Robyn and Family,
As I was on my way home from an appt. in Longwood, FL on July 11th, I decided to drive over to Marquette Ave. to see if I could find where Jimmy's plane might have come to rest. I found a board of flowers in the shape of a jet, tacked to a bobwire fence. I just stood there shocked and overwelmed at how and why this could have happed? This has hit too close to home.
As I reminisced, I couldn't help but think back to all of the great memories we had in...

I met Jimmy at Oshkosh the summer of 1996. He kept us in stitches with his aviation stories. He exuded his love of flying to all who knew him. He will be missed but also well remembered!

Robyn & Family
I was very sorry to hear about Jimmy. Reading over all the Guest Book entries I see the love for him. I had the pleasure of knowing him in high school. I remember when he started dating you and how happy he was. Robyn you have been in my thoughts and prayers.

I am unfortunate not to know Jimmy but do know his Mom, Jane. My condolences. I can't imagine losing a son or a husband & father. So sorry.

Dear Robyn and Family,

I was so sorry to hear about Jimmy's accident. I got to know Jimmy in the early 90's when we lived in Orlando. Jimmy and I attended several years of Oshkosh together and he trained me on instrument flying. At Oshkosh we knicknamed Jimmy, "Mr. Aviation" because of his intense passion for flying.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Jimmy will be missed by so many.
My deepest sympathy's,
Ted

Robyn,
Jimmy was my friend, as well as many others, while at Savannah Christian. Even at a very tender age it was apparent that Jimmy was a very special person with heart and soul of gold. I consider myself very blessed to have had him touch my life.
My heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.
God Bless You
