Jimmie was all things western; he also was a part of the Lone Star Music Association at Billy Bob’s, recruiting new talented singers.

Jimmie was known for the love that he had for his family. He loved his daughter dearly and was a big part of her life. He was also big on tradition and would take his grandkids to the Texas State Fair every year, just him and his boys. He was a diehard Texas Longhorns fan, and his grandchildren are diehard OU fans. Every year they would go to the fair during the Red River Rival to experience the atmosphere.
