Jimmie enjoyed relaxing while mowing. He was the ultimate practical joker.
When he retired, he enjoyed spending time searching for the winning slot machines on the boats.
He always thought of his family first and assured that they were all well taken care of. He loved spending time with his children and grandchildren. He worshipped the ground his wife walked on. For him, it was love at first sight. He was always there to give a hand up to anyone he could help.
