He enjoyed snowmobiling, four-wheeling, and being outdoors, particularly in the quiet of nature on Smith Road. Before his illness, he was employed at Integrity Trailers in Carbondale.

He was an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan. Jimmy made many memories with friends and family while playing darts, horseshoes, bowling, and pool. He will be remembered for the love he had for his son Spencer and the joy he experienced in being a dad.
