My nephew James was so much more than my nephew - he was my friend, who was "one of a kind."
I have so many great memories when we were young going swimming at Lord Phillips with him, or going to the beach down Fairhaven or in our older years at Nahant up in Boston.
The times my sister Cheryl would take us to to Celtics/76ers game with james and Ryan. All of us are hardcore Boston sports fans!
I was just thinking the other day how i felt lucky that James and I got to see so mant great sports moments...enjoying the Patriots most recent Superbowl over the L.A Rams 13-3! We spent it together and it was a great night with a lot of high-fives and hugs,
So many memories of us taking his dog "Buster-Brown" swimming, or watching the office with Michael Scott, or the Sons of Anarcy together, driving in his truck on a summer day singing our favorite tunes!
I love u James and u will never be forgotten and I am sure you are reunited with your brother Ryan in Heavan..love u guys forevet R.I.P
