Jennifer and family:
First of all, please accept my apologies for the lateness of this note of condolence at the passing of your very beloved Jimmie. I've been thinking of him since I learned of his passing late last week (Amy Barnes called me and forwarded the service information to me). Unfortunately, we've been dealing with hurricane Irma - first in preparing for her arrival from Wednesday through Saturday and subsequently, cleaning up. No damage to our home (we were very fortunate) but our yard and landscaping took a huge hit. Also, we had no power from Saturday night until sometime last Night (Monday). Hence, the lateness of my getting this not off.
I want everyone to know how much I admired, respected and loved Jimmie. Jimmie, Amy and I were all very close and helped each other through the tough times with a management situation at work that was hard to deal with. We spent a lot of time of the phone and got together face to face whenever that was practical. Jimmie was someone I could always turn to for advice and for an honest opinion. Of all my relationships, I valued Jimmie's friendship as none other. Unfortunately, we pretty much lost contact with each other over the past year. I retired from Saddle Creek in July of 2016 and I know that Jimmie wasn't feeling well even then. I had an accident last October that put me in the hospital for 11 days and then home for an extended recovery period during which I was pretty much incommunicado. I'm very sorry that we were unable to maintain our communications but I also know that our regard for each other had not diminished at all. Had we been able to talk before his passing, I know it would have been a delightful experience.
i will miss my friend and am very saddened to hear that you have lost someone I know you loved very dearly. I will keep Jimmie and all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless.
Kind regards,
Greg Payne

Dear Thomas Family:
I was deeply saddened to hear of Jimmy's passing, and am so sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of knowing Jimmy on a professional level as he was our Account Manager at Saddle Creek. Jimmy was so personable and genuine that we quickly developed into friends. Every month or so we would have lunch, not just to talk business, but about each other's lives. We would talk about our wives, children, dogs and sports like old friends do.
I can't tell you how much it meant to me that Jimmy took such a genuine interest in me as a person. I coached high school lacrosse in Cleveland, and every time we came down to play a Columbus team, Jimmy was there. It amazed me how selfless that was, to give up his personal time to come see a side hobby that I was doing.
I will continue to keep Jimmy, and all of you, in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Phil Wancata

We will continue to pray for comfort for your family. Jimmy was a good man who was humble and proudly shared about his love of his family (and Lucky the wonder dog!) during every interaction I ever had with him. I will miss my friend. Hugs and prayers for each member of Jimmy's family.
Amy & Kenny Barnes
