Jimmy embodied the essence of our community-spirited blues jams: love, and a beautiful feeling of connection among people enjoying wonderful blues music together. His ready smile and strong positive spirit, impeccable presentation of 3 piece suits, and occasional appearance on the dance floor are unforgettable, inspiring memories. I miss him, and feel he will always be with us.

Jimmy was a true gentleman in every sense. He was the epitome of style and grace. His kind and generous nature was a pleasure to be around, and the way he enjoyed music and his friends and all the good things in life was a teaching to us all. Rest on Jimmy. Thank you for the times we spent together. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and his many friends.
