Jimmie and I went to Garfield together. He was always nice to me. Ran into him about 2 years ago at the gas station and he told me, and I could see that he wasn't doing well. I was saddened by his condition. So sad to hear that he has passed but he is no longer in pain. Sending my condolences to the family.
