Jimmie Payne was a skinny kid growing up in Alameda when he met fitness guru Jack LaLanne and began lifting weights as a teenager. It was the start of a decades-long relationship for the former champion bodybuilder and LaLanne sidekick and business partner. The one-time “Mr. America” died Friday at his home in Healdsburg.
