Jimmy David Honeycutt passed away suddenly at home on November 3, 2025. He had a larger than life personality and lived a full and happy life which included serving in the Army from 1968 to 1970 as a truck driver in Germany, working twenty years for Kaiser Aluminum in Tulsa, Oklahoma, going back to school at the age of 38 and graduating with his Airframe and Powerplant license. He then worked for Boeing building the B2 bomber along with working for other aerospace companies around the U.S. as a contract aircraft inspector. In addition, he had a long and award-winning real estate sales career both in Tulsa, Oklahoma and Kent, Washington. He loved the Lord and we look forward to being re-united with him in Heaven.
