Thankyou Jimmy for being such a great friend and kind hearted neighbor and being an example to others of how we all should live our lives and love one another.

Jimmy, always loved his neighbors as himself ;which is the second commandment. I am going to miss looking out my window every day and seeing Jimmy outside playing ball with Sheba. I will always remember our last talk in the back yard when you , myself and Brian were playing with Sheba and you took her ball with your stick and stuck it between the branches of the little dogwood tree we share. We all kept teasing Sheba to "Get it,get your ball" ;then we all laughed as we thought for sure she was about to figure out a way to climb that tree and get her ball. We laughed a lot that day. We were always sharing garden vegetables when we had grown our gardens. Jimmy would lend us his mower if ours needed work or my husband would mow for him when Jimmy wasn't well.My husband Brian looked up to Jimmy like a father figure. The two of them loved to go fishing together even if they didn't catch many fish , they just enjoyed each other's company.. I thank God that He blessed me and Brian with Jimmy and Brenda as our neighbors, we truly are the better for having them both in our lives. Jimmy you are going to be missed every single day , and I am thankful for the assurance that we will meet you again in Heaven.
