Earl (Michael) Sims was born on September 25, 1956 in Jackson, MI to the proud parents Lee Earl Sims at age 47 and Eldora Sims at age 40. They loved him so much. He grew up with his grandfather Frank Sims in his parents’ house. He told me of the walks they use to take. Frank Sims lived till he was 105.
