Jimmy Chavous Obituary

Robert Darren
I was one of his students at Lucy C. Laney. He was one of a kind and a father to all hard head young men! Thank you for everything you done for me. Never forgotten

My condolences to the family of the late Mr. Chavous. I happened upon this guest book while searching for someone else. I do not know
Mr. Chavous, but wonder if I may have known Mrs. Chavous during our childhood days when my parents and I would make our annual visits to Ridge Spring. Then, no trip was complete without several trips to "Cousin Missy's" (Mrs. Thomas) store...Mrs. Thomas had a granddaughter named Tevera Peterson. Perhaps this is all a coincidence. Either way, I pray you are comforted by our Heavenly Father. God bless you and your family.

Jamie and Corey, I am very sorry to hear about the death of your father. I know that a man who raised fine sons as yourselves was a fine man (the fruit does not fall far from the tree). I pray for God's comfort for you and your family.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Chavous at Lucy Laney High School. I felt a kinship with him upon finding out he was from the Aiken area and his mother-in-law was my 6tth grade teacher at Pinecrest Elementary in Aiken. He was very much appreciated for his concern, kindness and sharing his automotive skills with the staff of Laney.

My sincere prayers and thoughts are with Mrs. Chavous and family.
