The link I posted to his wiki page said he died in Varina.

I always knew him as a singer and sometimes actor. His song IOU is a Mother's Day classic. Big Bad John is another of his best.

He sold his stake in the sausage business many years ago - but they kept using his name in the packaging.

RIP

Varina is a district / city in the eastern half of Henrico County. Which is the East End of Richmond Virginia.

Jimmie Dean spoke at my graduation and showed off his diamond encrusted gold belt buckle. Years later he got so damned drunk that Varina HS stopped asking him to come. He was a nice man. His wife is a nice lady. They were always good to the people in the community and never did anyone wrong that I know off. He was a good ole boy and will be missed, especially when you run out of whiskey or sausage. He sold the business years ago and they just kept the name I think?

For the record, I'm partial to Jamestown Sausage. You take a fat ole lump out and fry it up under a piece of iron. I used to make mine as thick as a hamburger. I'd make a sandwich with two slices of Texas toast, fried onion, pepper-jack cheese, topped off with Sweet Baby Ray's Barbecue sauce. Now that's a breakfast! I'm on a diet now. RIP Jimmie.
