Death notice for the town of: Lenoir, state: NC
So sorry to hear of Jimmy’s passing. Jim and I played softball together for the Moriilla softball team in Holyoke back in 1980. He was a very nice guy and enjoyed playing with our team. I have our softball team photo somewhere in my collection. I will be looking for it. My regards to his family. May he Rest In Peace. God Bless you Jimmy.
