It's been a year my beloved husband! I will love you and miss you the rest of my life! I think you of you everyday! I will join you whenever the time comes.

Oh my. I can’t express how I feel about the families loss.  Although Jimmy and I were great friends many many years ago. I have thought of him often. Along with Lisa and Michelle.  I can say now that he was the first man that taught how a woman should and can be a dear friend.  We were together for only a year or so. But I have never forgotten him.  I’ll miss him dearly.

Jon Cary and Jimmy with their treasures!!

I will miss you for ever, my beloved husband of 30 years!!! You were my sunshine!!!

I always enjoyed watching you and Brandon talk about cars for what seemed like hours. You were so proud of your car!! I remember when it was just a rust bucket in your garage and any time we come over I loved seeing the process.

Ohhhhh the tears are flowing with this one!! When they say pictures are worth a thousand words this one says it all grandpa. ❤️❤️

I was going through photos and I found this one. I remember it like it was yesterday. You got the biggest kick out of the bubba teeth an we laughed till it hurt! Your sense of humor will be missed! Memories like this will always be cherished. Love you always grandpa ❤️

Grandpa, as we all know you were the greatest. Greatest personality and greatest person. I’ve never felt so grateful to know that I had the opportunity to see you a last time not to long ago. You’ve always had such a personality, which we all loved. I’m thankful for every moment I’ve had with you. Whether it was family gatherings because of holidays or just sitting on the couch with you watching animal planet or old westerns. It’s not a good bye, it’s a see you latahhh. 

P.s. I’ll eat some cheesecake with ya one day! 
LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER

One of my all time favorite pictures❤️

Jimmy was my father-figure, my male role model, he stepped into the role as my dad never hesitating to help me when I asked him. He made me smile even when I didnt feel like it. He answered my stupid questions & so so much more. I couldn't have asked for a better man to fill those shoes. Jimmy made my life better by just being in it.  I will always cherish all the memories. I am so lucky to have had him in my life.

My Grampy ❤️
As everyone already knows, you were a one of a kind man. You brought so much joy and (laugh-tah) into so many peoples lives. I am truly blessed to have had you as my grandpa for the last 30 years of my life. You have never missed a birthday or a holiday, and none of those will ever be the same without you! I know you are up there watching all of the best Western movies and eating an unlimited amount of sweets! This isn't a goodbye.. it's see ya later, big guy.  
Love you always
Your Nikki ❤️

Hey Grandpa, thank you for always being the best grandfather I had the chance to know, from me and Derek with Laura always coming down and seeing all the family during holidays when I was still just a kid all the way up to recent times of me bringing my own family. I’m glad my son and daughter were able to know you as the great grandpa they loved seeing every time. Thank you for always being a great role model to me. I’ll always miss being excited years ago to ask you to show me the progress you’ve made on the red car and us walking around and you telling me all the work you’ve done on it over the years. I’ll see you again one day grandpa, love you.

Jimmy was one of my best friend his stories of his past always got a laugh out of me and the rest of the guys l know I will never forget him and he will be remembered as a big lovable lug

Our “Baston” buddy with the Ford “cah”. You were always soft spoken and right to the point!  We already miss the sharp wit and the quick smile. 

God bless Jimmy

Jim allways had a smile on his face even with his oxygen  mask.  He was a true Sunday morning breakfast guy with the geriatric delinquent Crue  we had many interesting conversations and stories to share.  He will be missed by all of us.

Jim and I shared a mutual challenge of being diagnosed with an incurable lung problem.  It's something you deal with every day. He was a great role model for me the way he always had a sense of humor, great one liner's when you least expected it, attended every early morning C&C with the ole dudes, sharing stories, opinions, and attending car shows and museum visits.  A true "Gear Head" with a passion for "Ole" cars.  I'll bet he's driving an old car in heaven today.  He will be missed by all of us ole dudes and everyone that had the privilege of knowing him.

My condolences to all the family and his friends

Mark Yonge, the Shelby guy.
