He will be remembered most by his friends and family for his love of a good conversation on almost any topic. He had an easy-going temperament and laughed often, and made new friends everywhere he went. The family has comfort in knowing that Jimmy is at peace with his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ This has been a difficult time for his family, but God has been gracious and blessed us with the support of many friends and family who love God and have loved us so well. We, his family, know it will be hard as we grieve this great loss but we remain confident and secure in the hope that God has freely given us in Jesus Christ. Jesus came to die for our sins and conquered death so that we may have life abundantly in Him. "But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep." 1 Thessalonians 4:13-14. The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18
