Peggy and family, I am so sorry to hear this news. James Lee was a part of our family when I was growing up, he and my brother Charles Yates were very close friends. Many fun memories. Prayers and blessings for you all.

As there is no time in heaven, we will see you tomorrow. There are horses to shoe, and mules to break up there. Peggy will be taken care of, we love you. Watch over us.
