Jimmie Lee McCarver passed away in Farmington, Missouri  on January 27, 2021.

He was preceded in death by his wife Jennie (Crabdree) McCarver, and by his parents, Lindell V. McCarver and Elva (Morris) Clark, and by one brother, Bobbie Turnbough.  He is survived by his first wife, Barbara (Ragan) McCarver, and their two children, Michael J.

Jimmie managed Ragan's Drug Store of Leawood and Flat River for forty-four years.  After his first retirement,  he then worked at Family Center of Farmington,  and then when he finally retired,  he spent his time volunteering at Parkland Health Center in Farmington.   He enjoyed swimming at the Farmington Civic Center every morning until his health no longer permitted him to do so.

Jimmie served on the Central R3 School Board,  the St. Francois County Health Board,  and he coached several youth sports teams.   He enjoyed traveling with the First State Community Bank Horizon Club,  and also on his own, announcing just a few years ago that he and his brother were going to sail down the Amazon River in South America.   Jimmie and his brother were gone nearly a month on this adventure. He enjoyed sports of all types,  and regularly attended college and professional sporting events,  including the St. Louis Cardinals  (baseball and football ), the St. Louis Rams, and others.  Jimmie was a member of the First Baptist Church of Farmington.

Jimmie, like his late wife Jennie, donated his body to the Washington University School of Medicine to further medical research.  At Jimmie'so request, no memorial service will be held.  Memorials may be made to American Heart Association.  Jimmie and the family express their heartfelt gratitude to the staff at Camelot Nursing Center of Farmington.  Arrangements by Horton-Wampler Funeral Home, Park Hills, Mo.
