Mr. James Larrell Price, Jr., known fondly as “Jimmy” or “Hotshot,” age 47, of New Castle, DE, passed away suddenly on Saturday, December, 22, 2012.
A native Delawarean, Jimmy was born in Wilmington on February 28, 1965, son of the late James L. Price, Sr. and Brenda Mae Freezer Price. He made his career as a heavy equipment operator and was employed with Leo Friel Tree Service in Wilmington.
