Rest in heavenly Peace Jimmy (MURF)
Kiss my Sister from me. I will never forget you coming to our Home when you and Ne´e broke up,, asking me to please speak to her, because you loved her so much.
The way you were with Joshy when he was born,, I still see your cheesy smile. You had that same smile with Jacob and Britty.
The times at your moms house, all of us hanging out.. you, Ne´e, me and Larry,, hunting at your Dads HOUSE,, so many good memories. They weren´t all bad. I choose to remember the good. Love You Always. I´m glad y´all(Ne´e, you, Joshy & Britty) were able to have conversations together not long ago. Even Ne´e said, you will always hold a special place in her heart and you always made her laugh. Love Ya!!! Thanks for these Beautiful Grandbabies of y´all´s also.
