James Lambert was a strong willed man whose presence was a force of nature. He was the type of person who did not see life in black and white, but rather in color and possibilities.
Jimmy went to college where he was inspired to help others. He was a respected EMT, an understanding employee for housing and a loving orderly for Faith Home. Jimmy had a huge heart and would lend a helping hand to those in need.
Jimmy also loved working with his hands and wasn’t afraid of getting dirty. He worked as a carpenter and was a huge car buff. He would spend hours fixing cars and learning as much as he possibly could.
Let’s not forget about his silver screen debut in the movie, Stone Boy. Jimmy always gave 110% in whatever he did. IT was always full steam ahead. He loved his children, family, and friends, whom will miss him dearly. Jimmy leaves behind a legacy and an example that should be followed: love life, sample everything, and always give it 110%-by doing so, you could never go wrong.
