I knew Jimmy in grade school and high school. Lived in the same neighborhoods to and he was a kind person to all of us. Haven’t seen him since but I do remember him that way.
God Bless
I work with Jim for four years in Glendale, and I never knew a more dedicated or capable firefighter.
Aside from that we were friends away from the firehouse, and I found very little that he didn’t know quite a lot about.
My deepest condolences dear Linda!
Sadly I’m to far away to give my supporting hand, but sending strength & power in this difficult time.
RIP dear brother in law Jim. You will be missed.
Prayers of comfort going up for Linda and Jim’s family.
