We have loss a good man, James "JT" Timbers

I had the priveledge of coaching with James my first year of coaching at Stone Bridge in 2005. JT was a phenominal person, father and coach. A lot of young coaches (like myself) could and have learned alot from seeing how James related to athletes in a teaching and coaching environment. Baseball has lost a phenominal person.

My prayers go out James's family.

No doubt, "JT" was a 1st class individual!

I always respected what he did and how he did it.

I was informed that his service is Saturday in Leesburg at Mt. Olive church at 10am.

Here's the info that was sent to last year's SBHS kids:

I know the boys really enjoyed having James around. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family...

Today's service was true example of someone living thru the LORD.

It was by far the largest service that I have ever attended and was the most spiritual!

I believe they said all 2 or 3 floors of Mt. Olive Church was filled to capacity!

JT, Mike Lockhart, Kenny M and Peppy C all traveled over to Winchester to play Post 21 American Legion baseball during the middle 80's as they were teammates with me along with Sam Plank who played at Handley.

Someway, somehow, Coach Jimmy Dix (Former Winchester Post 21 Head Coach back in the day) and I after standing for nearly a 75 minutes before the service was delayed until 11:30am ... was directed to the 2nd row beside Sam Plank.

Everyone who needs an example of how to live you life, just reflect on how JT did it!
