Jimmie's Story
Well to start, I've not seen most of my classmates since that night in 1956. It would be nice to chat with some of them again.
As for me, a short biographical sketch, I went on to graduate from Crichton college in Memphis, Tn.
I was married to Sharron Shatley at the time, a graduate of Tech Highschool. We had two children: Sharia and Kirk who live now in Nashville, Tn. close to where I live when I'm in Town. I have four grandkids. My dear wife, Sharron, passed away about four and a half years ago.
What have I done? well a whole lot of things, far to much to mention here but along with having been in almost every state (49) and several countries. I've been a fultime pastor, owned my own construction company, American Builders and Maintenance Inc., had a speaking part in a movie, and now serve as a volunteer missionary. I have traveled to 39 states in the last two years.

decide to go. I will be leaving for Florida on December 5, 2009 for the winter and be involved in a mission project there.
I don't know that I would change anything about my life even if I could. It certainly has been filled with variety and it has been exciting.
Without doubt the hardest thing for me to adjust to was the death of my beautiful and sweet wife who was the love of my life, the wind beneith my wings and soulmate for 44 years.
I have discovered that there are still exciting places to go and things to do and I continue to live an active lifestyle. God has blessed me with great health and I can still get into my 31 inch waist Levies. The picture on this page was taken in 2008 and I don't think it is all that bad for a 70 year old do you?
God has given me almost everything I've wanted in life and continues to open new opportunities and I've tried to be faithful to Him. He indeed is my purpose for living and without Him I would be nothing.
