Memories and Condolences

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

To the family of Mr. Mohler, growing up in Broad St. UMC; he always had a smile on his face and kind words to say to me or anyone where we saw him; in church or around town. Mr. Mohler was a true southern gentleman and a good Christian man. Our family will miss him very much.

Jim was a member of our Sunday School Class At Broad Street United Methodist Church. Visiting with him at the Social Hour was a highlight of my week. Was always impressed with his wide range of interests and his considerable knowledge on many subjects. He is missed.

I remember James when he was our traffic officer at Wayside and not one car got passed him. He would make sure of it one way or the other. He will be deeply missed. Sondra and Pete Deans

James was a friend of my mother, Madge McLelland, when she lived at Autumn Care and that is where I met him. We all shared many happy times together. I worked in activities for over three years there and James would always be so willing to help me in any way he could. We played the game Trouble many times, just the two of us and we were very competitive but always had fun. He looked forward to that. I took him Christmas presents every year and when he ran out of salt and peanut butter, and boxes of crackers,I would always bring him more. I will truly miss my friend.

I took care of Mr. Mohler when I worked in homecare and also knew him briefly when I was a rescue squad member. Even when he was sick, I remember him still listening to that scanner at home and his eyes would light up talking with me about the fire department. Deepest condolences.
