James was a student in my 7th grade English class at Goodyear Junior High. I remembered him (before he was known to the rest of the world) as an extremely respectful, intelligent student sitting in the front row. What a legacy he leaves behind!

Did you live in the Auburn Washington area and go to Olympic Junior high. If you did you were my friend and I did a pastel portrait of you in art class. It turned out really good.
