I thank the Lord for James and Gwen, together they were a beautiful couple. James was such a wonderful person. I met him at Easter Seals Adult Care Center when I started working there.He was a driver for the center and,also, held Bible study classes for the clients. This brought great joy to James and the clients and staff look forward to his teachings. Through James I met his amazing wife, Gwen whom has done my taxes since then. I give homage and honor to the excellent care she gave to her husband during his illness. By the time i knew that James had passed the celebration of life celebration had passed. However, the memories will always be a part of all who knew him, until our time is up on this earth and we meet him again in his heavenly home. Remember, Gwen, you are much loved by family and friends and we thank you for all the love and caring you gave to James.
