Jimmy “Jimbo” Lynn Burdette was born on August 17, 1957 to the parents of Virginia Mask Burdette and Henry Andrew Burdette.

Jimbo was a very special person in many ways. In his younger years, he enjoyed riding his bicycle checking mailboxes and delivering mail to the neighbors and cutting grass. Some of Jimbo most enjoyable moments were playing baseball on Saturday with family. He loved his mother and family very much. Jimbo had a heart of gold, he took great pleasure in trying to brighten up the day of those with broken hearts with his smile and GREAT BIG HUG. He was a Die Heart Alabama Fan. Roll Tide! But most of all he loved the Lord, going to church and spending time with the Lord.
