Jimbo loved to make people laugh. His smile was contagious. He loved spending time with his son, Alex. He has always loved working on vehicles. Working on cars was not only his hobby but also his occupation. He enjoyed it so much he would spend hours upon days to complete any project he had on his mind! His personality was so bright, just like his big smile and loud laugh! When he smiled, we all knew everything would be alright. He just had the kind of personality that when you met him, you were friends.
His greatest accomplishment was being a father to his two boys, Adrian Holland and Alexander (Alex) Holland. He has always had a special place for his boys, especially Alex. He is now reunited with Adrian. They will continue to watch over all of us.

The family would like to give a special thanks to Jennifer Askew Doyle, Miles Turner, Jacob Pace, Samantha Clemons, Julane Hicks, Bo Boy Kincaid, Larry (Bubba) Byrd, and Susan Fullerton.
