I knew Jimmer as a kid growing up through my parents and Aunt and Uncle. He was always so kind and never had a bad thing to say about anyone.

Jimmer, you were not only a friend and colleague, you were a breath of fresh air when we talked in the shop. When you lost your son I remember how devastated you and Nancy were. Now you are playing ball with him on the best field we have never seen the likes of. God bless you James, rest in peace my friend.

Jimmers is the most genuine person I know that would do anything for anyone. I missed him before he was gone... He is sadly missed. I would give anything to hear him giggle once again.
