What do we know about Jimmie Van Zant?

Post by ParaDime77 »

It’s my understanding he was a cousin to Donny and Ronnie. I’ve heard the name a time or two but didn’t know much about him or his career. Looks like he passed away in 2016.

Jimmie looked more like Ronnie. Nearly identical.

Jimmie Van Zant's life was shrouded in mystery. Let's just say he had a very particular set of skills.

Fishing, fighting and fucking.

And most likely drinking. He died of liver cancer at 58. He was a Van Zant after all.
