Jimi attended Maxton High School and, after her marriage to Heyward W. Taylor, lived in Laurinburg and then Hamlet, NC for many years. She returned to Laurinburg, NC in 1973 and was married to D.

She was a long-time member of St. Luke United Methodist Church in Laurinburg and became a member of Venice-Nokomis United Methodist Church while living in Florida. She was affectionately known as "Miss Jimi" to many friends, especially the friends of her children to whom she always opened her home and her kitchen.
