David and Cathy

We are so sorry about Bubba's death. We can in no way understand the depth of your grief, but we know it is huge. We did not make the funeral due to the death of a relative for which we were out of town for. Our thoughts and prayers were with you guys. We love you and will continue in prayer for you. Psalms 91

I am so sorry for your loss. In Bible class, we talked alot about Heaven. Bubba has beat me there and is grinning that smile of his, thinking it is even more wonderful than Mrs. Becky said! I am sorry I didnt know he was gone until this week. If I can help, please call me. 689-6550

Maja, Faja, & brother Josh:

My heart truly goes out to all of you, now and in the days ahead. Bubba always held, and will always hold a special place in my heart. We can sit around for hours, esp. at the Jones's, and say "remember when Bubba..." and smile or laugh at the end. Bubba would even laugh a time or two himself. My life has changed having known him.I love you all so very much.

My Dearest Bubba..

I've known you for years, each day has been a pleasure.

From our pretend fights to our endless hugs, you'll always be remembered in my heart.

You hold a special section, deep within me, that only has the words.. ''Bubba, I love you''

You're in a better place, I pray to God about you, life will look up, and someday I'll be there with you.

I love you James ''Bubba'' Fletcher.
