I wish I had stayed in contact over the years with Jimmy. I have many fond memories of "the old days". My sincere condolences to the family, of whom I also have wonderful memories of. They had been an important part of my life, way back when. My thoughts are with you all at this time of grief.
Rest in peace, Jimmy!
