Hey Jimmy! Just one more thought before the guest book of your life here on earth is closed. Your temporary life here was shortened and I believe you have graduated into your eternal life with God our Heavenly Father! As I reflect I have come to RIP that our Father in Heaven who is omnipresent and omniscient has told you the complete Truth of events from your birth to death ! He is faithful and just and I look forward to spending eternity with you in heaven where there is NO sickness, tears or death and we will rejoice in His Presence always! Loving and missing you much! Mama

I was there on the blessed day you were born and what a gift you were to all of us! You came early and were quite tiny but so strong and grew to be quite the young man!
I didnt get to enjoy your life, I always held you close in my heart and mind! I know you are in the presence of our heavenly Father and I look forward to spending eternity with you! May your family and friends find peace in their hearts and souls as you will be greatly missed! Mama

Jimmy I love you, it saddens me that as your little brother I could not spend more time with you Aaron. I love you both and hope to see you again, be at peace.
If anyone has contact with Aaron Barnett and could let him know, I would really like to talk to him. 918-671-4814. I hope someone will give him this message. Love you Jimmy

I am.so sorry for your loss. Jimmy and I worked together at Bass Pro Shop. He and I also shared my apartment in Alvin. I just heard the news today. Prayers go out to you all. Will truly be missed

I will always remember Jimmy as the hard-working, respectful, polite young man who greeted me with a joyful smile whenever I'd come to visit. And he was usually on his way out the door in a pair of rubber boots with a pail in his hand about to go feed the goats or roosters. He'll always be like a younger brother to me. One that I particularly enjoyed picking on. Big Jim and Margie, you raised a fine son. Some of my best memories were with you guys. May God ease the burdens of your heart right now and give you all peace and comfort. I love ya'll.

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you

Jimmy and Nina, I have so many sweet memories of being with your two precious boys for Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. It broke my heart that I was not able to come to either the visitation nor the funeral service. The weather was so bad and I asked at least 10 of my lady friends if they could come with me and I could not find anyone. I was afraid to try to come in the bad weather by myself and drive in a strange location. So please forgive me and know I love you and am praying for you. You know how much Uncle Clayton and I love all of you. You all are the only family I have left. Please call me sometime. I do no have a house phone anymore. Ionly have my cell (936)546-6280. I love you and will keep you in my prayers. You know I know the pain of losing a child. The hurt never goes away. It's been 36 years since Crystal left and it still hurts like it was yesterday. Love you., Aunt Norma.

JAMES: No words can express how I felt when I heard! First I thought it was you! Then I said, "Thank God" til I realized it was "Little Jimmy" I know it's been a long time and many miles between us; but you all were a big part of my life when our boys were little and the memories remain. All Good! Love you and will be praying for you all!!!
