IN MEMORY OF JIMMY JAMES

Ringmaster, Clown and a great human being!
Sad news from Florida.
Jimmy James passed away today.
Jimmy was a world class clown and then became a
world class Ringmaster on Clyde Beatty-Cole Bros Circus.
He retired to Florida a few years ago.
He will be sadly missed on the tanbark trail!
Rest in Peace Jimmy!

  1. We'll miss Jimmy, he was a funny guy. Amazingly enough we were in Jr. High School together in the same home room. Jimmy always came to school in a suit and tie. I WAS AT THE BACK OF THE ROOM IN TATTERED JEANS AND SHADES.
    we were on the BEATTY show 2 years before we realized we knew each other. JIMMY WAS A SCANDAL IN school but he fit right in on the circus. R.I.P.
