R.I.P. Uncle Jimbo

I never had the opportunity to meet him but I have heard so much about him. I find it so ironic that although we never met we do have something in common. He passed away on 12/25/70 and I was born 12/25/73. Isn't that something? It did not dawn on me in all these years until I actually saw it in writing (12/25)and begin to reflect on my family (in general). Well R.I.P Uncle.

Love you always,

Tammy Wilson

To JimBo's family,

Seeing Jimbo's picture reminded me of Sanford Street and the "Good Old Days.' God bless you.
