Dear Broden Family,
My sincere condolences to the entire Broden family. Seeing this great picture of Jimmy brings back so many precious memories of your family. Lillian was my sister, Yvonne's babysitter, but we all grew up together and we all
looked up to Jimmy. He was always a bright light in the community. May God comfort your family and continue to make his face shine upon you all. Thank you God for blessing Jimmy with seventy-two amazing years.. Min. Keith D Mitchell
