Jimmy, where do I begin. Your death struck me. We shared so many good and bad times together. You were always there when I needed a ear, giving me advice. I enjoyed your singing...your food..your laughter..after all you owed me from all those times I helped you moved. I'm going to miss you Jimmy. Your friendship meant a lot and I'm honored to have known a wonderful man of your caliber. I love you and rest in heaven.

Jimmy my friend I am heart broken, you where such a special friend to me and the ladies at Dr. Keisha Robinson office. The bond that was formed between the ladies here and the all the guys at the barber shop will never be forgotten. Jimmy with that infectious smile and swagger would just walk in and say to the lady patients I'm the new doctor who is next ,or just poke his head in the door and strike a tune all the ladies would all just smile. My dear friend you will truly be missed you had a way of bringing joy and laughter to everyone you would meet continue on above friend , and as you would say I will continue to "stay in my lane" Love Tonya F. Lary Gray, GA.

It's taken me a few days to gather my thoughts because this has affected me tremendously! Jimmy was not just my barber, he was also my friend! In my opinion, he was the best in the business. Never hurried regardless of how many were waiting. My wife and I was honored to have him in our home to prepare dinner for us on an occasion. He took great pride into whatever the task was before him. So in short, Jimmy my friend, you will be truly truly missed. Thanks for the 3 plus years !
