Jimmy would always try to put a smile on everyone, and he was an uplifting and giving person, who tried to do his best to help those around him.  He had a big heart and would try to help anyone he could.  He as a very loving, caring, and at times goofy, son, brother, uncle and friend.  He will be greatly missed and forever in our hearts.
