Not sure what to say?

James,

Rest in peace my brother. I will truly miss the times we spent talking about life and God's plans.

Gone to be with the Lord. Your work here is complete. You are and will be noticeably missed.

My brother in-law was the best I will miss him so much as I know you will I will keep you and the family in prayer.

Mac as I knew him was a great man and friend, we met when we served in the Vietnam war. Ten years after the war I saw Mac and we were friends again. He will truly be missed. God bless.
