James cared deeply for all his loved ones; he would never fail to be at our side at a moment’s notice. We are heartbroken, but we rest in the knowledge that he is in the Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Romans 6:23 – For the wages of sin is death: but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

James’s earthly journey is over, praise God for the gift of him to his family and friends for almost 58 years. We love you, James!
