JImi and I worked together in Raleigh at Eaton and I always enjoyed such a positive attitude and great sense of humor. His smile could cheer up everyone around. He was just a great person and he's missed. Prayers for the family, friends and coworkers of Jimi for this sudden loss.

Jimi and our company worked together for the last ten or so years. I was the person he called to drop by and review the need of the day. I cannot begin to describe how pleasing it was to know that upon arrival I would be greeted with a smile, a laugh, and the honest to goodness sincerity Jimi always gave. I will miss him so much. Further , his pleasant demeanor extended to everyone in our company each and every tine anyone came to his facility.
We here all were saddened and shocked to hear of Jimi's passing. While we grieve we also give thanks to have been able to experience his spirit which will forever give us all hope.

Hello Barlow family, would like to send my prayers to you all. Jimmy and I worked at Eaton together. He was a great guy. I'm going to miss our conversations every morning that we would have. One thing that I remember before he went on his cruise is he told me that he was happy with the way things were going in his life. That's a blessing in itself. He will be missed.
