Jimmy was one of my customers when I was working for Armor Environmental. I had known Jimmy when he was a boy visiting his relatives in Mt. Pleasant. My prayers go out to his family, I can say that your husband and father was a fine Christian man. May God surround your family at this time and bring you peace.

Jimmy will be missed greatly. Whenever I would come by the plant, we would have a long talk, most of the time about kids and grandkids. He always had the warmest smile and a twinkle in his eyes as he shared these times.
