Mr. Jimmy David Latham, III, 36, passed away on November 10, 2024, in Columbus. Jimmy was born November 25, 1987, in Clay County, the son of Janet Ann Young and the late Jimmy David Latham, Jr. Jimmy was an electrician with Glenn Machine Works, a job he thoroughly loved. Jimmy was known as a guy that would lend a helping hand to anyone. To know Jimmy was to love Jimmy. He was a loving fiance', dad, son, brother, grandson, nephew, and friend. Jimmy had accomplished a lot in the last four years since accepting Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior. Jimmy wanted his family and friends to know and understand what God's word says in 2 Corinthians 5:17, where it reads, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new”. Anybody that knew Jimmy, knew that it was obvious that he had made a major transformation in his life, but it was only through the help of God and God's amazing grace.
