Austin, TX Friday, January 12, 2018 Betty, Donna, Mike, Becky, Billy Wayne and Patty....My heart broke when I saw the obit for Jimmy. He was my next-door Daddy for many years. I always considered The Catchings Family as an extension of my own. I've looked back at so many pictures this week and shed countless tears while doing so. I know he's in Heaven and I'm sure Frances "Fifi" and Everett greeted him with open arms (and a cold beer). Look down upon us, Sir, and continue guiding us until we meet up again. I love you, Jimmy Catchings."Jr." Leggott
