Jimbo,whenever I think of you I hear your laugh and see your smile. Never will there be a gentler soul. Thank you for your love,your music,your encouragement. Most of all our children, grandchidren, and great grandchildren. Gone to soon, never will you be forgotten. I loved you then, I love you still. Peace and everlasting life is yours, Mary Jane

we had a lot of fun memories and great times thanks for all the wisdom and advice and learning to love life and there is always a better tomorrow I love you your Oreo Ariel

I see the sunshine and I'm reminded of all the days we spent playing at the park, taking walks, and you teaching me to play golf and me attempting the guitar. I see the night sky and I'm reminded of all the  times I listened to you play your harmonica  and the long talks about loved ones past, but most of all I'm reminded that you will be with me always waiting and watching over with love like you always have. You may not be here physically but you will forever live on in our hearts and one day we will see you again at heavens gate. I love you Grandpa Mustache. :)

When I was a teenager at First Baptist, my boyfriend, Bill Sims, and I would double date with Jimmy.  He was always such a positive person and a lot of fun.
My condolences to his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Some of the best years of my life were spent at FBC, WPB, 
working and playing with all the wonderful young people there. Jimmy Waters was one of the finest of the best youth group in America!

I was so saddened to hear of Jimmy's passing.  My prayers and thoughts are with your family.

Will never forget your smile Jimmy.  To all the Waters Family, peace be with you. Love The Maurice Holley Family

Grandpa, I know there are so many words that can be said about you. But the one thing that is the most important is knowing that I had you as My Grandpa. I will always cherish the memories we shared through my life. I will never for get you sitting on the patio, from time to time playing your guitar. Grandpa, please know that your daughter and your grandkids will love you so very much. You have taught us so many things in life. And yet we are still growing, and we still know you are by our sides to carry us along. I love you so very much grandpa and you will always be a part of me! No matter where I go in life. Look down upon your family, and know were moving forward as a Whole!

Sue and I are so sad to hear about Jimmy.  Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Dear Danny, Mike and the Waters family. When I saw Jimmy's notice I was deeply saddened. Danny I remember so well playing baseball in the open fields surrounding our homes.Jimmy was always the pitcher and what a great pitcher he was, What I really remember about Jimmy was his extreme kindness to all of us younger kids. I was so use to being picked on and bullied by older kids. Jimmy always treated us as his equals and I never heard a word of meaness from him. Even though Jimmy was only three years older then me I thought he was the ultimate big brother who was no more then fourteen years old at the time. So I just want the world to know that Jimmy always practiced the golden rule and this young man  has always stayed in my mind because of his kindness and respect for his fellow man. 

God Bless You Jimmy
