Dear Family of Jimmy Carr, What a WONDERFUL Gentleman Jimmy was. I worked with Jimmy in the Tin Mill and enjoyed so many of our great conversations about God, Heaven and How we need to prepare for the Home of the Soul. I know you all have so many wonderful memories also and that is what will now become your friend and take you thru the process of missing him. So many friends are praying for you all. May God Bless. A Friend, Darlene McKinley
