As we reported earlier this month, the iconic local store Jimbo's Quick Stop has announced that the were closing their doors.

Well today is that day.  The locally owned family business has been open in Southwest Louisiana for the past 40 years but today they shut their doors forever.

Folks all over the area relied on Jimbo's for their gas, hot breakfast, fishing tackle, monster hamburgers and a friendly face and smile each day.
