To my Papaw, I am happy for all the memories I have, the good ones and the bad. I spent so much time with you, watching Wrestling, and your soaps! All the times you chased Michelle and I around the pool, trying to make us leave. All the Thursday mornings we went to publix to get donuts. And how happy you were when Keira finally let you hold her, I know she will miss you, because I will tell her all the stories you shared with me. You are greatly missed, but I know you are having McDonalds coffee and watching all the TV you can! Love your Grandaughter Stephanie.

Earth has lost a most precious soul. He was a man who was an inspiration to us all. He loved to laugh, tell jokes and try to talk everyone in West Virgina to move to Florida. (~.~)I thank God that Uncle James had this time on earth to inspire us.

Uncle James gave love and he received even more love back from his family and friends. There is a huge void on earth here without him, but now he's in our hearts forever.

To James' family;
The loss of someone so close is difficult to bear. I pray that God gives you strength during this difficult time. Please let us know if you need anything.

Love you guys!
