I am sorry for your loss. I am glad that James Jr. made the most important decision of inviting Jesus to be his saviour, that in and of itself is a great comfort. May the Lord bless you with his peace and comfort your hearts as only he can.

Words cannot express how I felt when I heard the news from Michelle this morning. I would have been there last night, but I just didn't know! I am so sorry for your loss. I know that words cannot help how you're feeling, but I really am here for you if/when you ever need anything. That's what friends are for.

James, Deborah, Ginger & High Family, our hearts have been heavy since Ginger told us last year of James' condition. Although we want to be there with you in this time of grief & sorrow it may not be possible. Know that we are praying for you during this time, but know James is on the streets of gold & suffers no more in a place we all long to be some day. God bless you & keep you as He carries you through this time. Our memories of the High family will live in our hearts as we shared our love for Christ together for many years. Love to all in our Savior Jesus Christ.
