Chris Wilson, We are so sorry for your loss. Sending our love, condolences, and support to your family.
Long time friend, of myself and my husband, May you Rest In Peace
Jimmy, always an inspiration and loving kindness toward others. I loved having Jimmy as my Uncle. I got to know him well when I lived in Powder Springs for several years. Good times. My kids were “besties” with Chris. A lot of good memories. Jimmy would do anything for anyone at any time. Great man. Love him so much.
My deepest condolences to the Wilson family. Praying that God gives you peace and comfort during this difficult time. With much love, Kimberlie
We pray the love of God enfolds you during your journey through grief.
