Jimmy loved participating in and promoting drag racing, he didn't get the nickname five-0 Farmer for nothing. His motto was work hard and play harder and he lived it everyday. He loved his family and friends. He always enjoyed having people around, and everyone knew it. He made a living as a salesman and if you had something to sell Jimmy could find someone to buy it.

Services will be held on Tuesday, November 20, 2018 at 2 o'clock PM at Lighthouse Assembly of God with Reverend Danny Williams officiating. Interment will follow at Hillside Memorial Gardens. Services are under the direction of Bell-Cypert-Seale Funeral Home.
