He eventually moved to Atlanta, Georgia and received honorable discharge in the Air Force of the U.S. Military. He was always on the move upwards and onward. Jimmy held many positions in his lifetime, including Fisher Body and Southern Bell, where he retired after 40 years of service as a safety director for the state of Georgia. He held his real estate license all of his life and initially went to work for Charles Simpson and Associates. Eventually, he retired from Gwinnett County School Bus Transportation as a bus driver. Jimmy loved fast cars, fast boats, and fast music. He was never one to bother with songs, unless they brought rhythm to his soul and feet! He was especially fond of "Great Balls of Fire" by Jerry Lee Lewis! Growing up around the Grant Park area of town, he was known to hold attention of admirers as he "cut the rug" so to say, "roundhouse" Saturday nights. His greatest joy was his house on Lake Hartwell. For many years he cranked up his F150 Truck and he and Peter, his best buddy, more than a grandson, headed to have fun on the water, in his Century boat, with a V8 engine of course. He also loved spending holidays with his family and loved ones. There were many celebrations. He lived a blessed life. He loved deeply and was loved deeply by everyone who knew him. Jimmy was a man of faith, always modest, and gave the Lord all credit for his many blessings. He was movie star handsome with a heart of "gold" and a "pure" soul. He was a rarity in this world. He lived his 89 years with the most dignity and respect as a man. Jimmy was a manly man and a ladies man, in the best possible way. He respected women and they knew, as they responded to him favorably. He was a true gentleman. Hearts are broken everywhere, at the loss of such a "precious man." One thing for sure is when God made him, he broke the mold. The Funeral Service will be held on Saturday, September 12, 2020 at 2 PM, at Tom M. Wages Snellville Chapel.
