Jimmy was born Nov. 17, 1960, in Denver, Colorado. He lived in Colorado, Tucson and California before moving to Kingman, Arizona in 1971. He attended Kingman High School and lived most of his life in Kingman. Jimmy worked many years in concrete construction, was an excellent mechanic and owned and operated Yell Trucking Co. in North Carolina for two and a half years. He was a man of many talents with a very giving heart. He never hesitated to lend a hand to a friend or a stranger. He always tried to live life to its fullest and what meant the most to him was spending time with his children, whom he loved dearly. He enjoyed outdoor sports, including cliff diving and motorcycle racing. He also enjoyed four-wheeling and camping. Jimmy is survived by his beloved parents, Doyle and Delores Yell of Kingman; sisters, Lannie (Doug) Brotherton, Henderson, Nevada; Debbi (Jr) Mier, Chino Valley, Arizona; children, Joseph (Erika) Yell, Jaimi Yell, and James R.
