To the Butler family. I did not know James Sr., but I am a friend to James Jr. If it is true that the fruit does not fall far from the tree, I know that James Sr. was a fine man. I am sure that God welcomed him into His Kingdom with open arms and a great big smile. Remember that only his earthly life is done. His eternal life with all of its joys and excitement is just beginning. Rejoice that he now has what we all long for. Be blessed. James Sr. certainly is.
