It's hard to believe that Jim has been gone a year already...I know his friends must think of him often as I do.....

                                          Ron Furbee
                                           aka " Hayseed"

You will be missed dearly.Rest In Peace  my flower friend. Winnie

Friends since 1958.  We've played a lot of card games and Jimmy always won (or thought he did) and had MANY fun times together. I will miss him like no one else in my life.   I loved him like a brother and he was my best friend.

Ron and family our hearts and thoughts are with you.   

Jimmy, Divine Miss M, you made me smile, laugh loudly, and taught me how to walk on the stage and dance the night away.  There I was, out of my league, and there you were with kindness that will never leave me.  

I will look for you dancing in the sky.

After my partner Howard Lentz passed away in February 2020, Jim called me every week to see how I was doing and offered his and Ron's help if needed. He and Howard were both florists and had a professional kinship. Howard and I would make a sincere effort to attend Jim's alter ego, Miss "M" where and when ever he would be performing. Howard was always smiling when Miss "M" took the stage. I know that both Howard and Jim are still commiserating in their heavenly home. Miss and love you Jim Neal. 

Ron I’m so sorry to hear about Jimmy.  When I saw you a month or so ago at the grocery you both looked a little tired but then it was the new grocery. 
If I can help with anything please let me know. After I lost John there were times I wanted to talk to someone late at night.  But that’s not always a possibility at two in the morning. Ron I don’t sleep well and you’re welcome to call anytime including two in the morning. My cell number is 306-8906.  
As always, 
Tom
