In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I just learned of the passion of the Reverend Darrell James when I just found out that The right Reverend, Sandra Wilson passed away on April 16th 2025. This has been an overwhelming day of learning. The two wonderful peoples life is no longer with us but always with us in the spirit.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Father James was a beautiful soul full of life and compassion for others. He was my neighbor, friend, and a faithful member, as a youth, at St. Philip's Episcopal Church in Richmond, Virginia. May his soul rest in peace and rise in glory,

He was a caring, intelligent, gentle, soul, whom always knew what to do & say to comfort & eased all who were in his company, with a story to tell!
You will be missed but never forgotten, ever!
May you rest in sweet peace. Job well done!
