My Brother Jim Tippins, 3/24/1936 was found deceased this morning.
He has lived with the family of Kitzi Sprinkle for years. They called him PaPa (sounded like PawPaw to me) and the loved and cared for him dearly.
Kitzi is clearly distraught by having found him that way, and they are JUST NOW getting his body out of the small house where he lived on their property.
↑This was in 2016 at his 80th birthday↑
At present. my brother Jim will be cremated, I will get his ashes and arrange a trip south to do something, to be determined with those ashes.
Jim had clearly stated that he wanted to be buried in Claxton, so we'll try to make that happen.
