Jayne & Family so sorry for the loss of such a sweet man. He was a dear friend to all our class mates and will be greatly missed.
Jayne & family,
So sorry to hear about the loss of Uncle Jimmy. He was a good man & loved dearly. He will be missed greatly.
May the care & love of those around you provide comfort & peace to get you through the days ahead.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
I met Jimmy in the Sr. men’s golf group at Burnt Pine approximately 9 years ago. Every time he was in Sandestin he looked forward to playing with the group even inviting his Memphis golf buddies to join us on many occasions. During the time I knew him, we became close friends. Several times he had invited me to come to Memphis, and join him in a round at his course. I am saddened I never made it. He truly was a kind, God loving individual that was not only a joy, but a real pleasure to be in his presence. Speaking not only for myself, but the rest of the Sr. men’s golf group his stories, jokes and internet emails will truly be missed. Condolences and blessings to Jayne and the rest of the family during this period of sorrow and celebration of Jimmy’s life.
Just wanted to say that I knew Jimmy more than 30 years, being a lumber broker. Both me and my wife Martha finally got to meet with Jimmy in Memphis a couples years ago, in person. So glad we did. Jimmy was the BEST!!!!! So fun. I used to talk for long times and forget about doing business! He was honest! He was fair. He was holy. I could go on and on. He was just a complete GOOD guy! We that had been around him were Lucky to have really meet them. Condolences to Jimmy JR. and to your other love ones. Anything we can do for you, Martha and I are there for you.
Linda and Rodney Jimmy, great guy, great wife and great life. We celebrate his life with fond memories.
I am so sorry Jim, Palmer, Rowan and entire family for this great loss!! I hope and pray that your sweet memories of Jimmy will bring you peace!! Mariann Barksdale
My heart is so saddened by the loss of such a great and wonderfully kind man. Jimmy always greeted me with a smile and a hug and was always such a joy to be around. My thoughts and prayers are with you in the sad time and I pray peace and comfort come to you soon.
My sincerest condolences for your loss. During such difficult times God is close to us as a source of comfort (Psalm 34:18). May you find strength and peace through prayer and his word the Bible.
