Support Funeral Services for James Weatherford

Donation protected
My names Emily and I’m trying to raise funds for my mom to assist in the costs of my stepdads funeral services and any other expenses she might inquire during this time.
We are devastated by the sudden and unexpected passing of James “Jimmy” Weatherford, our beloved stepfather, partner, and friend. In the early hours of October 21, 2024, Jimmy quietly and unexpectedly left this world in his sleep, leaving us all in shock and disbelief. Jimmy was a hardworking, kind-hearted man who carried the weight of the world on his shoulders to ensure the happiness and well-being of his family. His partner, Lori, who devoted herself as a homemaker, is now facing not only unimaginable grief but also the financial burden of this sudden loss.
Jimmy was truly one-of-a-kind—an incredible partner, loving stepfather, adoring “Pawpaw,” and a fiercely loyal friend. He had a brilliant mind, often engaging in thought-provoking conversations about history and politics. He was a genius in his work as an AC man, always finding solutions others couldn’t see. But beyond that, he was a passionate and skilled pool player, leading his Sunday league team with both expertise and a competitive spirit that inspired many. He was a pool shark in the best sense, always ready for a friendly match and eager to share his tips with others. His sharp wit, big heart, and generous spirit made everyone around him feel welcome and loved. We will forever miss the playful banter between him and Lori, the warmth of his presence, and his unwavering support.
As we navigate this heartbreaking time, we are asking for help to cover the funeral expenses and support Lori with the accumulating bills. This loss is both profound and unexpected, and any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference. Please remember to cherish those you love, and tell them how much they mean to you—tomorrow is never promised. Thank you for honoring Jimmy’s memory and supporting us to give him the memorial he deserves. There is an option to contact me if you would like to donate a different way as well. Again, thank you for your support during this time.
