I would like to express my condolences to the family. I dated James clayton for two years before he relationship with Toya. I truly loved him and I will miss him deeply. Please forgive me for not showing up to the funeral I just found out when the funeral was. The James I knew was a very happy person whom loved everyone most of all kids. I wish I could have been their for him. The last time I spoke with him was after christmas and he did not sound like himself I should have tried more to communicate with him. But my prayers goes out to his family. Love always Desarie Lowe (If need anything call 407-692-8595)
