I too remember loving to see beautiful Tina and handsome Jimmy dance together - made all of us ,as teens, a little envious & jealous! I remember Jimmy as a great looking guy with a good personality and a lot of ambition and drive.
My thoughts and prayers are with Michael, Michelle, Tina and the whole family in his illness and loss.
Much Love and Heartfelt Symphony,

I, too, remember Jimmy's patience with novice water skiers. He wouldn't let me give up. I also remember when he and Tina would dance the push. It looked like they were born dancing together.

Dearest Michelle and Michael,

Sending you both my condolences on your Dad's passing.

When I think about all the fun we had together in Arlington and then continuing in Dallas with your Dad, it brings a smile to my face.

The best part is that he helped raise two great people who have passed love that onto your kids.

With deepest love, Sharon

Jimmy lived life to the fullest - it astounded me that he could recognize every song and artist from 40 years ago. My thoughts and prayers are with Michael and Michelle, his greatest accomplishment.
Rest In Peace

Jim Warner was a lovely guy, a generous host and positively saintly with little kids learning to waterski. My former husband and Jim Warner loved to crack each other up. Our family was very blessed to have the Warner family in our lives. Angels sing thee to thy rest, old friend.
