James and Davonna were both students in my economics class. James was one of my all time favorite students. He sat in the first row and was the first to volunteer when I needed someone to role play to simulate the economy. He and Davonna went with me to several community events outside of class. He was deeply committed to getting involved and learning more about the world. The MATC community will deeply miss him. He will hold a special place in our hearts. My deepest sympathy to the family and all who knew this wonderful man.

It is amazing how time gets away from you, it was nice to catch up with you when our jobs crossed and put us together a couple of years ago. I will always cherish the memories of hanging out in Beaver Dam...my deepest sympathies to the Taddey family. Jim was a really good guy to know.

I just found out within the past year through genealogical research that we are relatives. I wish I could have met you before this tragedy! I am so very sorry and condolences to all of my new found family in this time of loss. (My mom Karen was Anna May's cousin.)


Love,
Rosemarie & Family
