✿༻♥ My Uncle Jimmie ✿༻♥
My Uncle Jimmie was a character. He was always smiling and playing jokes on people. One particular memory, I was shopping in a local grocery store. I was just pushing my shopping cart when another shopping cart slammed into mine and this man fell over my cart like he was injured. I was so concerned about this man saying "Are you okay?" With everyone in the store staring at us, he looked up laughing so hard!! I said, "Uncle Jimmie???" It was pretty funny. ~I miss you Jimmie~ Your Niece, Tammie.
