Our family will always have you in memories

My cousin introduced me to my very first scary movie . Always with a smile and a laugh, James was the only cousin I had around my age. As an only kid, that meant a lot. Even when we hadn´t seen each other for a long time, and we´d see each other again- there he was, with that big smile. He was a warm, inviting, safe place for me. A buddy out there. He was everyone´s buddy. I feel peace knowing DeeDee will show him the way. Love you James.

I had the privilege of working with James for 6 years. He truly was a kind and generous person and he will be greatly missed. My sincerest condolences to the Martines family.

Worked for Mike & Mary when Lauren was about 7 back in 1995/1996. James came in the office quite often and was always a refresher to the day always having something to say that made me laugh. My sincerest condolences to Mike and the entire family. He was quite the presence and I'm certain he will be missed by all that knew him. ~Danielle E. Shipman

Always a great guy growing up and playing football with him. Lost track of him and wish i hadn't. So sorry to hear. He was way to young.

Sending prayers and sincere condolences to the Martines family. James will always be in my heart.
