I was so sad when I heard the news about James' death. I had the pleasure of getting to know James when he rode my bus while he atttended Tate High School. He was one of those students you automatically bond with, he was always smiling and telling me funny stories. He was such a wonderful person, and will be greatly missed.

James, you were and always will be very special to me. Your a wonderful person who stood by my side when my son Kyle was in trouble & I had never even met you before. You were very friendly and so sweet to us & a good friend to Kyle. I can't believe that this happened. I enjoyed meeting you & talking to you. I pray for your family that God will help them through this. You walk that path up to heaven and when we get there, you can show us the ropes. We love you & will miss you.
