family. Each morning he relaxed sitting out on his back patio overlooking the lake while he had his morning coffee. Family was everything to him, he looked forward to trips to the farm to visit his mom and dad. James was a selfless man, there wasn’t a time when he didn’t put others before himself. As he always sang, “to know me is to love me”, and that was the truth. Every person he came into contact with couldn’t help but love him. He will be dearly missed. He is now rejoicing in heaven with his bride, awaiting his family.
