Rodney Underwood says
Jim was my uncle and Godfather. During my youth he was simply known as ‘Uncle Jimmy’ I remember him as a gentle giant that I always felt safe around during our many visits up North over the years. He was always kind to me and made me laugh at least once every time I saw him. I will miss those brief moments of laughter. RIP ‘Uncle Jimmy!’
Sara Wray says
