James Franklin Gillon of Ralls passed away Sunday October 22, 2023 at the age of 62. He was born December 20, 1961  in Dallas, Texas to Walter Ellis and Mary Evelyn Priddy Gillon. Jimmy had an overwhelming love for his Lord and Savior Jesus and left behind a beautiful legacy of steadfast faith.  Jimmy showed his fierce love for family and friends by serving them in any way he could, especially fixing things. Home Depot is going to miss him! As much as he loved the beach and water, his favorite times were spent with the people that called him Pappaw. He was Pappaw to 4 grandchildren: Brooklynn, Waylon, Gracelyn, and Stetson; Dad to Brittany Stubblefield; brother to Suzanne Comer and Jill Calderon; and Brother Jimmy to many, many friends.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks you to make a gift to your church or the Ralls Methodist Church.
