Dear Rhonda,Joe,Nick,Lucy and Ben

My deepest sympathies on the passing of your beautiful son and brother.
I will never forget the thousands of smiles James gave me over the past 6 years and the times he would sneak into Lab 2 and pretend to be part of the Chem class just to make us all laugh!
Wishing you strength and peace over the following days.
