Rest in peace Cousin Jim. In our younger years, we always got together with family during the holidays, and it was always fun to be around him. Prayers and thoughts to his wife, daughter, Mom - Aunt Janet, and other family and friends. So sad to hear.
I am truly shocked and saddened. I am so very sorry for your loss. Jimbo will be missed.
Jimbo was one of my supervisors at SRK and I loved seeing his smile everyday. He always stopped by to say hello and ask me how my day was going. He was one of those people who made you feel like you were an important part of the team.

I can’t imagine how his family and friends grieving such a loss. We worked together nearly 11 years, my son and I would ride our 4 wheelers to visit him on occasion and always had great dialogue about life, and motorized goodie’s. RIP fella your journey is complete but legacy is not.

This is so sad. Jimbo was a great man and a pleasure to work with. He will be greatly missed. Prayers to Marsha and all of the family
Although I have only known Jimbo for only a few years I must say it has been a pleasure in knowing him. Jimbo with his friendly smile / humor was always a joy to be around. I always looked forward in seeing him at the family gatherings during the holidays. I will always have the upmost respect for him for the way he showed the love he had for his wife Marsha to everyone. Everyone knew he was a proud husband and took very good care of his family. Hard to find that quality in men today and definitely stood out to be one of the best.
