JAMES M. STEELE Jr.

Jim, We first met 44 years ago if you remember at first we didn't like each other but in a short time we became friends too the point that you are the best friend I ever had. When I found that your dad had died when you were very young i offered to loan you my dad and you accepted. You two met and instantly clicked, You adopted yourself to our family and we adopted you too, Over the years we have been so close that when we would meet people you would introduce me as your brother not just...

Though it is a time to mourn the loss of a loved one, it is also a time to celebrate and rejoice in the afterlife. Jim you were greatly loved and will surely be dearly missed. You clearly demonstrated for all to see, which such dignity and God's grace...And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus. Hebrews 12:1-2

There is a bittersweetness to be sure, yet through it all, there is a tremendous amount of joy knowing you are at peace in our Lord's...

love you dad
love you grandpa
