I will always remember Jimmy for the support he provided when I began bowling. His support allowed me to embrace a great hobby I still enjoy today. My condolences Taunya.

Taunya and Family,

I am so sorry to hear of Jimmy's passing. I still remember the days when Jimmy and I both drove Volkswagon Bugs to Hanahan High School and Jimmy would tell me about something new he was doing to his car to "make his look better." He was a great person and from what I have heard an excellent husband and father. I know that he fought a tough fight. I hope that your memories of him will bring you comfort during this time of loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your children and your parents.

Sincerely,

April 30, 2012

Heaven certainly got another Angel today. Jimmy was a terrific guy and we shared in some great childhood memories growing up in Hanahan. Him talking his mom into giving us a ride in his uncle's classic Corvette was one of many. Taunya, I'm glad Jim and I ran into each other at Felkel Field a couple of years ago where he introduced me to you and your great family that he was so very proud of. He will certainly be missed.
