Condolences. I always liked working with Jimmy. He was always straightfoward and made me laugh with his southern humor.

I am so very sorry to hear of Jimmy´s passing. He was a dear friend and colleague and I will be forever grateful for his friendship and support during our days together at PM JCALS. I learned so much from him and he was a great mentor to me. My deepest condolences to all of his family.

I went to school with Jimmy and we graduated together in 1957 from Hernando High. We didn't call him Jimmy, we called him Jimmy Thomas. He was very respected, very quiet and very tall and always made the honor roll! Sending love and condolences to his family that he loved so very much....
