Jimmy is the darling of the Warriors, just ask anyone. Jimmy lives in Ballyfermot in Dublin. He was married to Phyllis for many a year but Phyllis' untimely passed away in 2006, leaving a big void in Jimmy's life. Jimmy is a great family man and never forgets to bring home some goodies for the grandchildren after every trip. He has been with us from the very beginning. Jimmy has been the bus driver that has driven us throughout Britain and if you have any sense, you'll hang on tight when Jimmy Schumacher hits those corners at speed. A great GAA man, Jimmy and his 3 buddies, never miss a Dublin football match and they have travelled the length and breadth of Ireland supporting the Boys in Blue. Jimmy Philips IS the Gaelic Warriors.
