A Lewisburg native, Jimmy was born on Aug. 26, 1948, to the late Joe Marshall Nix and the late Christine Colbert Nix. Jimmy was a devoted husband, father and provider, who was loved by many. He loved the Lord, his beloved wife, Patsy, his precious grandchildren, and his family. He was definitely a cut-up and jokester, always picking with someone.

Mr. Nix was a devoted member of Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, and loved his church family very much. His favorite saying was “Every day is a good day.”
