It's been 2 weeks now and I find myself missing my Uncle "V" more each day. He was truly an example and taught me so much without ever having to say a word. I cannot imagine growing up without him in my life! I am thankful for all of you welcoming me into your home, treating me and making me feel like I was part of your family. I love you all and my heart hurts for each of you!

Uncle James was by far one of the finest men I ever known. Considering we grew up without a father I always thought it would be wonderful to have a dad like him. He was a Christian man that loved his family and would do anything for them. He put God first and that is the best gift he could have taught his family. God definantly got a awesome angel.....

Aunt Lois,
We are grieved to hear about the passing of Uncle James. He was such a special man, always making us laugh.
While we know that he is resting in the arms of Jesus, it still leaves a hole in our hearts, no longer having him here. We love you and will be praying for God to hold you close, giving you peace and comfort.
Love,
Bobby and Ruth Friedrichs
