I am so sorry for the loss of your uncle Jimmy. I only had the pleasure of meeting him one time when grandma Nadine came to New Orleans to visit your (mom and grandma) Sandy. He was around 13 or 14, I can’t remember. He and I were the same age both born in 1948. He told me he was a surfer.🏄🏼 WooHoo!! That was impressive to me. I liked the beach 🏝 and thought how cool that would be to know a surfer!!🤣😂😅 especially from California! Of course, you’re not going to find a surfer in Louisiana... Another thing that intrigued me about him is that he wanted to make tacos 🌮🌮. Tacos??? I said what is that? (I lead a sheltered life🙃) Anyway we didn’t have any ingredients for the tacos so they never happened. After all Maw Maw would not let a taco upsurp her chicken stew....🤣😂 Even though it was a short encounter What I experienced with your uncle Jimmy is that he was a free spirited, uninhibited Nice guy.
May he R.I.P. God bless him🙏
For Jim, for family and for friends, I say this, I will cry no tears of sadness, I will cry tears of joy for his memory lives in my memory. From one micro second to the next micro second he will travel with me forever. SEMPER FI.
