Jimmy was proud to be a cowboy. He loved hunting, fishing, kaya king down the Illinois River, Oklahoma football, and playing his guitar. That twinkle in his eye, bright smile, deep belly laugh, and big personality will be remembered by all who loved him. You could always find him talking and trading stories with his friends and family.

His stories were larger than life! He could made you feel like you were there, or wish you were, and he loved telling them. He enjoyed creating new signature recipes and being outside on the grill cooking for people, and he was good at it! He loved kidding around and you always knew he was up to something when he shot you that wink. He was a caring father and Paw Paw who loved spending time with his kids and grandkids whenever he could. Most importantly, Jim passionately loved the Lord and wanted to talk about Him and pray with you every chance he got.
