I had the wonderful opportunity to work with James on the DRTP, in IND, IN. I was the safety person for the site and James was always spot on, with suggestion and comments that would work for the betterment of our project.
I very much enjoy meeting James and having the pleasure of sharing some of our life experiences.
May the LORD be with you during your time of healing and lost.
