JAMES FRANKLIN VINES Sr.

My condolences to the Vines Family. I did not know Mr. James Vines but I know his son Earl, who I haven't seen in ages. I met him at the Chateau that used to be on Pembroke Avenue. We became "good buddies". Earl was a great guy and I see he looks very much like his Father. He had a beautiful smile and was very friendly and I see through messages people have left and looking at his picture that Earl apparently got all of this from his Father. May the happy memories you have of your loved...

Oh, Betty, I am so sorry you have lost Jimmy. How long ago were we together? Thank your family please for writing the obit - with such love and caring. Clearly his smile could light up a room. If you would like, please call me, With love to you and your family and sadness for your loss.

We remember you at Westhampton Baptist Church. We pray for your family at this time. May GOD give you peace and blessings beyond measure.

I remember the days at Westhampton Baptist Church. We also lived close to you in Thornhill off Briarfield Road. We thought you lived close to the Forbes. You were a great couple. We pray for your family at this time.

Remembering Jimmy during our football years. Wonderful life and experiences. RIP friend.

What a beautifully written obituary about the wonderful and full life Jim had. I know he will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. My condolences go out to Betty and his family during this difficult time.

Sorry to hear of Jimmy"s passing. I worked with Jimmy for many years, both At Newport News and Idaho. Had a lot of good times, I know he will surly be missed.
