My uncle , my uncle , my uncle! I love you & auntie Liz with my whole heart. Not many people was able to understand the value of LOVE that both of you have for one another but you all let that LOVE SHINE SO BRIGHT, that it is so unnoticeable to many! The love was glued together by GOD! That's that unbreakable kinda love! I thank GOD, you & my uncle James for showing me how to duplicate that love even deeper.

I was one of many that sat at the table with uncle James to hear him teach me some things and pray for me & my own family. I have always valued those moments and phone conversations. Those conversations will have you in tears.

During uncle James transitioning, my family and I visit him for hours daily. My uncle James kept kissing auntie Liz... And wanted kisses all day from his sisters.... He even called in his brother Donald to come here..... We said, "uncle James here's Shylah". He opened his eyes wide, looked her way, raised his head, smiled and said to her, "hey baby girl". That right there warmed my heart. Shylah will never forget that moment and neither will I. My uncle James left this world with so much love, happiness, and at peace.

Uncle James & auntie Liz thank you for welcoming me into you all lives as your niece!

The Campbell family I love y'all. Thank you for loving me like a niece of your own.


I went to the viewing yesterday and uncle James was sharp as a tack and with a warning smile on his face.

A GOOD MAN HE IS/WAS!

Love,
Shinell Johnson
