Jimmy and I were friends while he lived in Arizona and I visited his home in Nashville a couple of times. He and Kathy are great folks and we will miss Jimmy. Rest in Peace, old friend.

I was saddened to hear about my good friend Jimmy Yates. We have been good friends since about 1971 where I first met him in Phoneix, Arizona. I wrote more about Jimmy and Kathy in "Extended Family", and we were like family. Jimmy is at peace now.My condolences to Kathy. I will be contacting her soon....al
