Jimmy Storys / LeeAnn Please use the tribute page to add your own Jimmy storys. We know there are *a lot* of them out there. Include anything you remember about Jimmy (like his silly sayings "that's ate up", "psych!" "that's fire!" or my favorite "minchinas".. yea, not sure if that's spelled correctly or if there's even a correct way to spell it!........ Even use this site to write letters to Jimmy, telling him all the things you never got the chance to say.
Today would have been your 44th b-day. It's weird how you're kinda stuck at 41..I'll be catching up to you soon! As tradition has it, I'm making you your favorite cake;) I love you and miss you. I hope you're having a wonderful birthday with all the other people we've loved and lost.
God Father / LeeAnn
You have two new God children to watch over up there with you. Please take care of them and let them know how much they were loved and wanted. Tell them I'm so sorry, so very sorry. Please help me figure out what to do now. Close
Still here..still missing you / LeeAnn
Soon it's going to be two years since you left us...it's still so surreal. You still had so much left to do.. so many things were left un-said. I have so much regret...it weighs me down like a lead coat. Not a moment passes that you aren't on my mind. Everything reminds me of you. When I see a guy with a cut off shirt or tats..or better yet, both.. I think of you. Whenever I hear crazy laughter..I think of you. When a new movie comes out that looks pretty cool..I think of you. Almost every song on the radio reminds me of you..whether it's Notorious B.I.G or the BeeGee's..it's all you. You're everywhere. I hope you know how much you're missed..how much you were loved; how much you are *still* loved. You're forever my big brother, even if I pass up the age that you lived...you'll still be my big bro. I still need you, I need you a lot. If at all possible, I hope you can still be here for me, for all of us. I love you Jimmy. See you soon. Close
Your Birthday! / Luz (Rosa's Mom) Oyola Today is your birthday and yet we feel the same. Another year without you; another year of pain. We've continued to celebrate you, in any way or form. But we just can not forget you, in our hearts we still mourn. You left us unexpectedly and we're lost in our despair. This horrendous pain we're feeling; we just can not compare. Our beautiful world keeps growing as it supposed to do, we don't know how it does it, continuing without you. Some say you're in heaven, others say you're fast alseep. All we have are your memories, that's all we have to keep. As we raise our glass of spirits, to make your birthday toast, We'll wish for your eternal blessing, to the most courageous host.
A brief moment of darkness was all that I knew, before Heaven's Gate came into my view. Loved ones and friends I had missed for many years, welcomed me with open arms and many happy tears. All the hurt, fear, and pain that I have ever known, is gone from my life, I am finally home. I gazed upon the Lord's sweet smiling face, and for the first time in my life I knew and felt His grace. I know that you miss me, but please dry your eyes. I will always be watching and loving you from my new home in the sky. A cool breeze on your face, a touch of light rain, I will send as a reminder that we will be united again. Life on earth is but one brief moment in time, I am finally home, Eternity is mine.
Autumn Gone / LeeAnn
This poem was written by a friend of mine, thank you Martin.
Autumn Gone
The golden Summers time has past and Autumns calm will soon be gone The time has come for partings grief with Winters breath I must move on I need the road benieth my feet the thrill of open trails I yearn for travel far and wide And wind within my sails A restless soul a wandering heart a need to find my home desire for a better place never more alone
Jimmy's friends.... / LeeAnn
I'd like to thank everyone that's made a point of stopping by and leaving messages. Jimmy loved (loves) you all and I know it would have meant a lot to him (and it probably does now!) to know that you think of him. It also means a lot to me, it helps to know that we're not alone in missing him. Next time you stop by, drop me a line with your email address. Love to you all. Peace, LeeAnn Close

Visiting Jim at Cemetery / Stephen Hudson (Family friend etc. )
Yesterday I stopped by to see where Jimmy was buried (as I wanted to know exactly where his gravesite was). When I discovered his tombstone/grave, it hit me hard as my brother died over 6 months ago and the first thought that came to mind was perhaps Jimmy and my brother Michael were having a talk etc. with each other in "Heaven". I don't really understand what happened to my brother and yet seeing Jimmy's grave and missing my brother Michael we all hurt for each other one way or another.

I only want people to think I'm crazy! / Scott Harvey (Brother-in-Law)
Jimmy had lost his license for a short time, but wanted to go over to Connersville to check out some guns. Consequently he asked me to drive his vehicle. So I'm driving down the back road from Pennville to Connersville (think it was called 9 mile or Pennville road?). Anyway Jimmy and I are laughing and enjoying each others company. Then a couple of minutes of silence came and I could tell Jimmy was thinking of doing something. He had that twinkle in his eye and that mischievious grin on his face. When all of the sudden he covers my eyes with his bandana or dew rag. He says to me," How big are your balls?" Well I'm driving and can't see a thing but instead of hitting the brakes like most people would have done, I push the accelerator to the floor. It seemed like an eternity, but it was probably only a matter of seconds. We're flying when I realize we are no longer on the road. Jimmy pulls the dew rag from my eyes just in time for me to pull the vehicle back onto the road to avoid hitting a telephone pole. He shouts, "Man you are crazy! I only want people to think I'm crazy, but you're the real deal." At which point I replied, "I'm crazy, you're the one who covered my eyes while I'm driving your vehicle." Anyway we both laughed and he just shook his head as in disbelief of what had just happened. Perhaps he realized that he had met his match. Every now and then at a family get together I'd ask Jimmy, "How big are they?" He would just laugh. No one else knew what I was talking about, but he knew.Close
Your stone looks good. Dawn and I went to see it today, then later on mom and I went out to take flowers. It was the first time she'd seen it. I think she liked it. We thought about taking Brutus with us. Maybe I'll take him next time. We had everyone over for a big dinner last night. It was so quiet without your laughter and antics. Such a huge part of our family left with you that night. No one really says much anymore but you can tell we're all feeling the loss. Nothing is the same, nothing will ever be the same. I love you.
