Jimmy was a very unique person who seemed to always have away of making you laugh. The whole family have been a true asset to Damascus and we hope that Johnny and Barbara and the family will always keep his memory alive. Every time you eat a Reeseās Cup you will think of Jimmy. Godspeed Jimmy, you will be missed!
