Butch, I will never forget you. It seems like I knew you forever. I will always remember you most for your beautiful smile and that laugh. I have one memory that I will treasure that ended in you saying you girls what are you up to now ?
You will be missed, but you will be in good company. I loved your Dad.

I have known Butch all my life, as a child, as my teenage boyfriend in school for about 4 years, and as a friend forever. I will miss not being able to call him and ask him about something in our school years or just about someone we knew in the past. He could remember anything from the past from our young childhood at Judd Hill Plantation to our high school days and in our adult life. Thanks for the memories and Cheeseburgers & Fritos at "The Corner." BE AT PEACE MY FRIEND. Love You

You are all in our hearts and our prayers! Jimmy left us all with so many wonderful memories to make us smile. The Trumann High School Class of 1967 has lost another one of it's shinning lights!

I love you Butch! You welcomed me into the family without questions! You and I 'clicked' immediately & I knew I was part of this huge Southern family! I looked up to you as more of an Uncle than as a 1st cousin. Your Mother & my Father are siblings! I love thus crazy family & have always felt completely welcomed in your home & in your presence. I will miss you terribly & I will always remember you as one of my most favorite people! Rest in peace my most precious cousin!!! All my love, Laurie (Frank Deans daughter).
