My condolences to the Perez family on the passing of Jimmy, When I moved to Sacramento in the sixties, I met Jimmy and the guys from Southside. We use to hang out with the guys in Seave Circle were we all have a good time having a couple of cold ones. He will be remember for his happy humor and his joking ways. Throughout the years we lost contact since he moved out of town as we were growing up. Unfortunately, we all must face the end of life and move on the next journey. Jimmy will always be remembered and sadly missed by all.God bless all of the Perez family and may Jimmy rest in peace. Good-bye my friend,until we meet again, Kiki.

My deepest sympathies to all of my cousins, aunts and uncles. Uncle Jimmy is an amazing person. I loved to hear him tell stories about grandpa Pete, and growing up in Seavy Circle. All those stories always had a funny twist which would leave everyone listening laughing at the end. I am glad I was able to spend time with him, my mom Ryan, Lindsay, and Monica before he passed.

I will miss my uncles crazy sence of humor. When I was 4 or 5 I was eating watermelon at my grandmas. And my uncle said to me you know if you eat the seeds your butt will grow and you will have to wear mens underwear. Now that's funny.....Are thoughts and prayers go out to all his family.

I can hear my uncles laugh right now and his teaseing, Which he did all the time. I remember when I was eating watermelon one time and Jimmy said to me(mind you I was only about 4 or 5). If you eat the watermelon seeds your butt will grow real big and you'll have to wear mens underwear...Now that's the kind of humor I will miss. Condolences go out to Monica and family.

My dearest sister Monica & The Perez Family:

So sorry for the loss of your father. You should be very proud of yourself to have been so strong to stand by your father's side through this whole ordeal. You were a very strong support system for him. A very strong person whom I admire. I know what you must be feeling as I lost my dad 13 years ago.

Your dad was a young soul who always had us laughing. I will cherish the times he would go out with us clubbing and dance with us like he was "Mr. Forever 21"...LOL

My prayers go out to you, your siblings and extended family.

I'm here for you should you need anything. Love you,
Your Sister Rosemary
