Bonnie, So Sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I admired and respected him so much. It seemed he was always helping my daddy at the barn. As I grew older, I came to realize that both you and Jim were rare friends to both my parents. We were all so lucky to have had you in our lives. Jim is no longer suffering, and I like to think that he and daddy are swapping stories about things they shared as friends here on earth as they wait for all of us to join them on the other side of Heaven's gates. Love and prayers for your family. Love Rebecca Wilson Jolley

Bonnie, I am so sorry to learn of Jimmy's passing. Although it's been many years since we had any contact I have pleasant memories we all shared in Scholl and beyond. You and your family are in my prayers.
