He is now rejoicing that he is in the presence of our Lord, and his loving wife of 55 years, Betty Sue Stockstill Albritton. Bro. Jimmy pastored Zoar Baptist Church in Baton Rouge, La., for over 25 years. In his retirement, he founded Pioneer Ministries, which served the unchurched regions of the United States for another 15 years. Preacher, as he was known by his family, was the earthly example to his children and grandchildren of the Heavenly Father’s unconditional love. His life was lived “Because of the Lamb”.
He was preceded in death by: his parents, Curtis Lee Albritton and Lessie Mae Albritton; his step-mother, Arlynne Albritton; his wife, Sue Albritton; and his grandson, Shawn Michael Albritton.
Survivors include: his children, Craig Albritton and wife Kellye, Bryan Albritton and wife Maggie, and Mark Albritton and wife Linda; seven grandchildren, Meagan, Dallas, Dawson, Jonathan, Aaron, Zachary and Philip; and his sister, Juanita “Snookie” Sherrer.
