My heartfelt sympathies to the family. Proverbs 17:17 tells us that "A true companion is loving all the time and ... is born for when there is distress." In times of such sorrow, the love and support of friends can help carry you through. May their time. comfort help sustain you during this difficult

Our prayers are with you all at this time. I went to church with Jimmie and Susie at Mason Street Baptist in the 70's. May God's comfort sustain you at this time of loss.

Jimmy was my third cousin. Jack Grimes was my dad's first cosuin so all of this ancestry gets kind of confusing, but I always knew who he was. We onced hooked up to play a softball game in a tournament and got our butts handed to us but we had fun. Jack and Margaret Grimes (parents) were always a favorite of mine and along with my family I would like to express our sympathy and condolence to the "other" Grimes family in Jimmy's passing. May the Blessings of God go with the family during these trying days. Conley & Jean Ann Grimes, Richmond, Virginia.

Carolyn and Chance, I am deeply sorry to hear about the passing of Mr. Grimes. The few times I met him he was always nice and very respectful to me. I still miss the interaction I Had with my students and their parents and I cherish the memories I had with them. May God Bless Mr. Grimes family during this very sad time.
