I never actually met you in person James but from the stories I was told by your friends and family I could tell that you loved your family and didn't know a stranger. Rest in ☮ friend and fly high.

From the beautiful love filled event our niece Jessica put together with the help of her entire family!
I hope you all know that I have no words that could possibly explain how much everything you do and have done, means to me, to us.

James, you know my heart goes out to you big guy. So unique. Ill not forget you...as it was my honor to serve you in a small way.
