I don't know if we are related. My father (Clifford) had a brother who lived in Evansville named Willy Belcher. The photo and description of James' personality matches that if my family here in Owensboro and Butler County, KY. Related or not, I offer my sincere sorrow for your loss and wish you the best during this time of sorry.
