Add memories that will last forever

Not sure what to say?

My brother, Jimmy, was a one of a kind person. To know him was to love him. Take him as he was or leave him alone. He was truly a very tender-hearted man. His dry sense of humor was a Jimmy trait. He loved his children, Heather, Jesse and Michael and his grandchildren Austin and Emily. His one hope was to see all of them once again, before he left this world to go to a better one. That didn't happen for him, but he can now watch over them all. He never told me, but I knew that he loved me and my family very much. He didn't want to leave quite yet; there was so much that he wanted to do. I didn't want him to leave, there was so much I wanted to talk to him about. We shared so many childhood memories and I was not done talking to him about those memories. He lived with our Mother for eleven years. He was the eyes and ears needed to help her keep her independence and stay in her home.

I know that he is sitting in heaven with God, because his belief in God was very strong. He has joined our dad and sister in watching over us as our angels.

"He was not heavy, because he was my brother". And I loved him.

My thoughts and prayers are with Jimmy's family right now. I've been working with Jimmy since 2006. He was always upbeat and never seemed to let anything bother him. He always made me laugh. And several customers over the years told me that Jimmy was the best driver we had. He will be greatly missed.

Sincerely,

John Glidden
