My dear brother, my heart is hurting but I know you are much better now in the arms of Jesus. The memories are filling my mind of our life through the years. You were always funny, kind, caring, helpful and you always knew how to work a deal :-) Love you Jimbo. Rest in Peace.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.
