Jimmy Taylor Jr.

Mr. Jimmy Lee Taylor Jr. passed away Sunday, September 13, 2015 at St. Marys of Michigan Medical Center. Age 41 years. He was born March 29, 1974 in Saginaw, Michigan to Loretta Johnson and Jimmy Taylor Sr.
Jimmy was always on a money making mission. He loved to travel, attend concerts and comedy shows, He was crafty with his mouth and hands. As he would say, I make money in my sleep. Anyone would know this if they ever sat and spoke with him, had business dealing with him or visited Magic Car Wash and got your car blessed by him. He loved to dress and shop. Jimmy loved life and his family. He was the true definition of an entrepreneur, a hustler and a go getter. Jimmy knew how to get it out the mud and everyone he came across learned something from him. Out in the community Jimmy was known as June. He never came across a person who didnt know and grow to love him, especially the ladies. His presence will be truly missed by all who knew and loved him.
