He wrote about his true view of the world from his deepest thoughts and feelings, leaving no doubt as to the depth of his feelings and true talent. The family will be attempting to publish his works. Jimmy left us knowing how very much he was loved; not only by family but many friends as well. He made some bad choices in life and was not able to free himself from their clutches or the consequences of those choices. He lived freely on his own terms and and sought to make people laugh and love as he did. The world he inhabited is a better place because he was in it. Those who knew him are richer for it.
