We are neighbors of Ray and Cecelia..we didn't know James well, however, he was a kind boy to help his grandparents out with yard work and such. Words cannot describe the sadness we have for the loss of James. Many prayers have been said and we will continue to pray. Know that Jesus has wrapped His loving arms around this sweet boy and is loved and protected. With our deepest sympathy...Julie and Joe DeLong

Dear Manske Family,

My son was a friend of James and graduated with him earlier this year. James was spoken of in our home from time to time. It is most humbling and amazing how God used James, a mere stranger to my wife and me, to teach us so much – about Love. The Love James received from God and offered to you and so many classmates has shown us ever deeper the value of an Eternal soul. Please accept our family's deepest prayers. I can assure you that although James' nineteen years of life here could be viewed as brief, the relationship we have with God has been forever strengthened. The Wisdom God shared through James – the value of his life – for this we are forever grateful to Him and to you all. I truly believe we will always remember James in these ways. Thank you for your son, brother, and friend.

In Christ,

Brian Niggemann

James, you were a tiny tot in a stroller making your first visit to the Milwaukee Public Museum when I met you. You grew, and I felt privileged as I marched beside you in parades where you proudly led us with the number 5 guidon flag. I followed your successes from school to school and enjoyed conversations with the fine young man you became. I looked forward to meeting up with you at UWM. I, like so many others, James, am enriched for having known you and for knowing your family! You will be missed but not forgotten! Thank you for being you!
