Share your condolences:
On a professional level in many ways Jimmy Alverson is the name and face of our company. When one thinks of GH Metals they think of Jimmy Alverson and when one thinks of Jimmy Alverson they think of GH Metals. In many ways when our company lost Jimmy it lost its identity. If our company was Progressive Jimmy would be our Flo. If our company were State Farm Jimmy would be our Jake. And if our company were Aflac Jimmy would be our duck. Our company simply will not be the same without Jimmy Alverson! On a personal note I wish to share some words from the Bible found in the book of 1 Samuel 20:18; " Then Jonathan said to David, tomorrow is the new moon: and thou shalt be missed, because thy seat will be empty." Jimmy we miss you buddy!
