I am so sorry for your loss of James. I just found out about his death last night I want you to know I thought the world of James. When he used to come to the VFW he had such a great sense of humor and we all loved to hear him talk about his love of fishing and his large family. May he rest in peace and God grant you the comfort and healing you need.

He is going to rehab tomorrow at Agape for a couple weeks. He will be 84 on Friday. If there is anything we can do, please let us know. You will be in our thoughts and prayers!!!!
