Following retirement, he began working at Gene Gossett’s Auto Parts where he

Jimmy loved helping people with mechanic problems all over, even when they
couldn’t afford to fix it, he always found a way to help. He enjoyed working on old
cars and trucks, cutting grass, helping anyone in need and listening to good old
country gospel music sitting on the tail gate of his ole truck. Most of all, he loved
spending time during special events with his family, grandchildren, great-
grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
