James E. De La Zerda

Blanca and James, I am very late hearing about your Father, I'm sure he left you with a ton of great memories to keep you smiling. I met your father while he was walking on Academy. I was suprised to me to find out that he and my father were cousins. It was great to hear him speak of when they were youths and a few of the dances they attended together.

My husband and I met "cowboy" in church. He was a gentleman and very kind with a very firm handshake and a great smile. He will be missed by many people and I will always miss his kind words.

My prayers and condolences to all the family. I do remember him sitting in his chair with his guitar along with smile. Although most of the time he wasn't very pleased with our antics but always a gentleman. Joined again with your beautiful mom.

Jimmy : I am very sorry for the passing of your Dad. I have fond memories of both your Parents. I seem to remember his Mercury 4 door and how he kept it immaculately clean. You and your family are in our prayers.

I'm sorry for your loss of James. I'm sure your hearts are heavy at this time. May the " God of all comfort" bring comfort to your family (2 Cor 1:3). He will be at rest and in God's memory

Blanca & Jimmy,

Uncle Jimmy made our lives complete. He was funny, loving and kind hearted. I know he is where he wanted to be...right next to his Sugar. One day we will all be reunited with him in God's Kingdom!

Blanca & Jimmy,
Your father was a Texas/De La Zerda Gentleman that I loved! He was always kind to me and the love he displayed for your Mom was the example I follow to this day! He and your Mom are together again in Heaven and one day, we will see them again!
