His spare time was occupied by spending time outdoors, watching western films, and working with his hands. He had a special admiration for the high mountains of Colorado where he lived for a period of his life. Most importantly, Jimmy was an advocate for his family and loved ones. He lived in the home of his daughter Melanie and watched as her children grew, served as a fishing partner for his son Jimmy, and was the best home-repairman in the state of Texas to his daughter Tammie. Jimmy cheered on sports events and school achievements of his grandchildren with excitement and pride. Jimmy will be fondly remembered and warmly missed as a son, brother, father, uncle, and grandfather.
