Not sure what to say?

I knew James when coached at Hillcrest High School. He was a wonderful person and he made a difference in many young people´s lives. I am happy to have known him.

A wonderful MMOV. I miss you truly coach/daddy. I always send and give my love for mama Barbara. I love y´all and thanks for accepting me as y´all daughter. Keep resting

Thank GOD ! I got a chance to meet such a wonderful MMOV!

James and Barbara are fellow Alcornites. I met both of them while attending Alcorn. They were college sweethearts and such a beautiful couple.

James will truly be missed. I pray that he is now resting in heaven. He will be remembered by all who knew him.

My condolences to Barbara and the rest of the family.
