Juli,

I can't begin to tell you how sorry I am of Jimmy's passing. Anyone that knew Jimmy knows when I say he lit up a room with his presence. I never met another USSS agent like him. Playing softball on the Counterfeit Div team with him was the most fun I had with him. I am not sure if it was the game or the few pops we had after the game, all I know is my stomach hurt after each game from laughing so much. Juli I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that things will start to get a little easier.

I was shocked to learn of Jimmy's passing.

As a former teammate, friend at W.V.W. High School, I will remember "Jimbo" as smart, level headed, tenacious {in sports} and most of all he was hilarious to be around. Seems that he carried these great attributes into adulthood and became a successful,well respected, and much loved individual.My deepest and sincere sympathy to his family .

Jimmy was one of the finest men I have ever known. Bright, funny beyond belief and so very good at his work. He loved the Secret Service, but more than anything he loved his wife, Juli.



He will be missed, but the stories of his life will be told in the service for many generations.



God Bless Jimmy and Juli.
