James D. Jimbo Denney, Jr. age 21, of 89 North Scott Street, Carbondale, died Sunday October 6, 2002 at home. Born June 30, 1981, in Scranton PA. He was the son of James D. Denney, Sr., New Jersey, and Debra Esgro, Carbondale. He was a graduate of the Carbondale Area High School and was currently enrolled in Johnsons College, Scranton. Jim loved life and living it fully from a smiling baby to a joyful adult. He went through his years making the most of life. He loved sports, school, the outdoors and making the most out of each day. He loved once again becoming a full time student, beginning a new journey of discovering what he wanted to be. He loved his newly purchased 1987 Firebird coupe and the chance to drive it as he enjoyed--fast. He loved music-festivals, concerts, (especially Woodstock, past and present). He loved his collection of crystallized rocks that were the colors of a rainbow. He loved his guitar and bongos and being outdoors under the stars. He loved his long blonde hair and his individuality-he knew who he was and kept true to his beliefs. He loved people and had friends and family that knew Jim to be a gentle, loving, and honest person. Jim was a wonderful son, brother, godson, grandson, uncle, nephew, cousin and friend. Most of all he was Jimbo, whose spirit and soul will be so greatly missed but whose life here on Earth has left it a better place. Well miss you Jim.
