I remember when we were in high school I put a down payment on your 1960 Chevy truck thought you had restored. Unfortunately things fell through and was not able to pay any more on it. I'm so sorry for that. I wish I could have purchased the truck. You did so much work on it.

Although we weren't the best of friends haha actually not even close lol. I will miss you because I went to school with you and I Know you, doesn't matter if we were friends or not you'll be Mist in my eyes. Randy Matlock.

James was one of my favorite guests at Yoke's Indian Trail. I knew James when I worked for Excell Foods. I will forever miss him and I send prayers to his daughter who I know is grieving. James was a loving father.
