    Though we haven’t seen one another for years, my prayers go out to my cousins, Jimmy’s daughters and grandchildren. My mind races of all the memories at the Davis home. When Tom and Jimmy threw a pillow in Uncle Lee as he was sleeping is one of the memories that will forever stay etched in my mind. ( Uncle Lee was not happy) Prayers to all of you ❤

    Jimmy was a wonderful friend. From a trip to his grandparent’s farm to bike rides all over town he was always up for an adventure. Jimmy shared his home and the Davis’ house was a great place to hang out. With a park across the street and a neighborhood to explore Jimmy was the funny, fiercely loyal friend you were lucky to have.
