The first time I met Jimbo was in front of dairy Queen where my car had broke down and I was two hours from home. He tried to get it running for me to know prevail lol. But I know now that was God putting a good big hearted and fun to be around person in my path to have the pleasure of knowing. He got me home and then a few months later reached out for a friend and a place to get away and clear his head and of course I was happy to help. I had just lost someone dear to me and Jimbo spent Thanksgiving and Christmas with me and got me through a very emotional time in my life. He kept me laughing and wouldn't let me get down and out!! I hated to see him go back to Jacksonville but his heart and soul (his mom) was where he wanted and needed to be with. I am shocked and heartbroken at the news I just received and I pray I get to see his big ole grin again on the other side!! RIP friend!! You earned your wings good buddy!! I pray he went in peace and his head held high!!
