Jimmy loved living on the Bayshore, he said he never wanted to leave the “hill”. The loss of Jimmy is being felt by the whole community, by all those who knew and loved him, especially his family.  Visitation will be held 7pm to 9 pm Monday, May 11.  A funeral service will be held 2pm Tuesday, May 12, 2026, with Pastor Herb Anderson officiating.
