Anything to get your own private bus and now this... Jimmy was an awesome person since day one when we first met on the bus.. With his attitude and pride, he was the coolest person I have ever met.. Go niners, Giants and since he is up there in the heavens, he can watch from all above..and make sure that the Niners get to go to the super bowl next year.. The 2015-16 season is to remember Jimmy.. Rest in Peace brother and I will see you up there in the Heavens.. And to the Francis family, I am sorry for your lost and Jimmy will be missed by many of my good friends today..

I knew Jimmy from 5th grade to freshman year in Delhi. He was always very friendly and happy. Everyone loved and accepted him because he was a true genuine person. I remember he cute thrilled wave he always have when he would see somebody he knew. Or even when he would get nervous and touch/play with his hair and back of the neck. In 6th grade we had a water day at harmony ranch park and Jimmy lived down the street and insisted he was going to go home and bring sodas for everyone! Jimmy keep shinning im glad your in a better place. At the baseball games at the highschool Jimmy would always be socializing and one day followed me around barking at me because he thought it was funny. He definitely cheered people up. I wish your family the best in this rough time

I was blessed to have worked with Jimmy on a daily basis at Schendel Elementary School. I always looked forward to the time I spent with Jimmy. He entered the classroom like a burst of sunshine and fresh air. He would dash through the doorway with a huge smile and offer friendly, personalized greetings to his teachers and fellow students. Jimmy's enthusiasm brought joy to us all.

I offer my deepest sympathies to Jimmy's family. Please know that he will live on in the hearts of everyone who was fortunate to have known him.
