"HELLO WORLD!!!" The world cares very little about what a MAN or WOMAN knows; it is what the MAN or WOMAN is able to do" (Booker T. Washington). "Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way" (Booker T. Washington). "Gray skies are just clouds passing over" (Duke Ellington). Mr. Jimmy B. "Whyte Folkz" McMahan, Sr. was one of the REALEST...MANE!!! A once in a life time charismatic MAN of VELVET and STEEL. HE will NEVER be forgotten and he made this world a much better place. Memphis 10 was certainly blessed by his presence, wisdom an optimism. There is a brighter side somewhere and surely Mr. Jimmy B. "Whyte Folkz" McMahan, Sr. can walk around HEAVEN all day!!!
