We thank all of you who attended Jimmy's Memorial Services and thank all of you who contributed, helped out, or just offered your condolences. There are far to many people to Thank to list names. The family is very grateful for all who were there.

 

A Memorial Service will be held at the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge near Lawton, Ok in the near future. We will be presenting a slide show with images of our friend Jimmy. We are thinking of having the Memorial service in January.
The date is yet to be determined.

There was a memorial service held at exposure climbing Gym on Sunday, Dec 3rd at 6pm

We are having jimmy's memorial at exposure this Sunday the 3rd. we want all of our climbing family to be there. I have received calls from some of jimmy's non climbing friends and they are coming as well. This is not an exposure thing, this is a climbing thing and we are asking that all climbers in Dallas to be there to honor a passionate climber and a great person. There will be the opportunity to make donations and to participate in a silent raffle. i have been contacted by many gear manufactures and they have donated a lot of things including ropes, shoes, crash pads etc.... there will also be a small onsite comp which will be 8 dollars to enter. ALL proceeds from the auction and the comp will go to his 4 year old girl. we will also be serving food and beer. please..please..please be there. There will be opportunities for everyone to tell of there memories of jimmy and for us all to grieve together as a family. Even if you just knew of jimmy or just sort of knew him please still come. we will be closing the gym early on Sunday and the service will begin at 6p.m. and go until whenever we decide to leave. Also don't forget to bring your climbing gear....so that we can all climb together. i know in my heart that jimmy wouldn't want it any other way. Call Exposure if you have any questions. (972) 732 0307. Thank you so much

Best regards,
Kevin B.
