A strong courageous young man. You raised two fine boys and were an inspiration with your battle against this terrible disease. It was a pleasure to know you and be close to you and your family. I enjoyed your company and meals together when I lived by you. You will be missed.

Due to busy lives and sad to say only 30 miles, we lost touch but you were always in our mind and prayers. I am glad that I was able to be with you, your dad and children the last few weeks of your life. Those wonderful boys will carry on your name and legacy with pride. Rest in peace and say hi to your mom and grandma for me.

We met as 15 year Olds and after 20 years I had the honor to visit you in 2013 and we picked up as if time never passed. You were my truest, most loyal friend. You will be missed forever. You had the kindest heart a person could have. Gosh I miss you. May you have eternal peace and happiness.

That BIG smile, the laughter, the random facts and stories, and unconditional support will be missed yet never forgotten. The courage and patience Jimmy showed, especially through his fight with MS, is something we should all learn from. I love you my dear friend and will hold your memory close until we meet again.
