Our condolences to Diana and the family, Jimmy was a great elder statesman,we talked about college football often and his genuine hospitality was shown to us when we would spend time with him and Diana.
Jimmy, we miss you already.🙏🙏💜
Love Wes and Donna Dodrill
David, We are so sorry for your loss. We are Praying for you. Love you and Tiffany and Connor.
Jimmy was a wonderful cousin and I adored Uncle Horace and Aunt Hattie Mae. We had lots of fun visiting our cousin on the farm, Tommy Jones (deceased) and sharing Sunday visits with cousins Sherry and Donna. My Daddy (deceased) was Jimmy’s uncle Orian. Daddy, Uncle Glen and Uncle Horace were good brothers to their only sister, my Aunt Dot (deceased). Some of the stories the Mitchell boys would tell were quite interesting! I hope they are all telling those stories again in Heaven and sharing a laugh or two. I’ll miss you, Jimmy……….
