JAMES J. HIGGINBOTHAM

I was so blessed to be your sister-in-law. I have so many wonderful memories of all the years growing up in the family: you coming home from the St. Charles dances in your "blue shoes" singing the Temptations to typing your term papers for you that I thought you had already written but instead you would just talk as I typed.

What a tremendous loss we are all feeling. Uncle Higgs was such an amazing person who touched so many lives on so many levels. I will miss the times when he used to stop by to check on my mom and I, tell me how proud he was of me or have a little heart to heart about life and family. He is such an inspiration.

To the Higginbotham's, I am very sorry for your loss and I pray that your grief subsides a little bit more each day. Steve, you have always been a good guy and would love to get in touch with you again.

Dear Higginbotham Family,
So sorry to hear (late) of Jim's passing. What a kind person he was.

Josephine and family,
I was so sorry to hear of your loss.
May your love, strength, and fond memories help you through this very difficult time.

I really apologize that I didn't hear of his death until August 21or I would have been there for all of you and provide my condolences in person. My thoughts and prayers are with you in this most difficult time. I know the pain of such a loss never goes away but God does provide us with His support and comfort to carry on and celebrate James life with all the finest memories...
