Continuing to be sadden by what it "use to be", the daily reminder of "what was" and "will never be again"...our hearts are broken by the absence of both James and his sweet wife, Debbie. Not too many days went by when you did not see them out working in the yard, waving to their neighbors or talking with strangers who would walk past the house. Just can't believe it has been almost a year - how sad the neighborhood has become without them here.

How sad the passing of a really nice guy. He was always available to lend a hand, no matter what he was doing. Jim always had a pleasant smile and will be greatly missed by his friends and neighbors....I should know, I am one of his neighbors. We appreciated Jim and know he is now walking with Jesus.
