Mary Jo and family,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss.  We can still remember his smile and his sense of humor.  He was a great man and a blessing to know.  You  both were always an inspiration to me and Tommy while we were at First Assembly.  We are praying for you and your family in this time of grief and hoping you find comfort and peace in Jesus' arms.  
God Bless You,
Tammy & Tommy Cottrell

It was our priviledge to know him.  He left an amazing impression of Jesus on our lives.  Mary Jo and the family are in our prayers!

Jesus now has a warrior home. James was a fighter and his wife is the soldier who fought the fight with him. I count it a wonderful Blessing to be a part of their lives. I love you both so very much. MamaJo, you will always be my Spiritual Mother and James my Spiritual Daddy. I love you and James, we will see you soon.

Mary Jo, Jimmy and Wanda...I am sad to learn of James' passing but I know the change the Lord made in him and know he has found his reward!  What fond memories I have of our days at The Rebel!  God bless each of you in the days to come.  I pray God will be with each a you.

We are very sorry to hear about your family's loss.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Miss Mary Jo, Jimmy & Wanda,.  I was very saddened to hear of Mr James' passing.  I have Many Many Great Memories of him from our days at Rossville Academy. My prayers are with you all during this time.  May God Bless you all & Give you Peace, Comfort & Strength in the days ahead.

We only knew Mary Jo and James for the last 11 years, but it seemed longer. He was such a blessing and always made us feel like old friends. Our hearts and prayers go out for Mary Jo, family and friends. He will be greatly missed, but left a legacy of love in every life he touch. See you again some day my friend.

It was an honor to have known him.  He is a true testimony of God's grace.  We love and are praying for your family.

To all the family of James Edward Wilson, please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss.  May God bring you comfort and peace at this time.  Just a little trivia, his birthday is the same as mine expect for the year.  Mine is 1939.  Wish I could have seen him before he went "Home".

Dearest Mary Jo and Family,
I was saddened to hear of James passing. He is not lost tho, he just went on ahead of us. We are praying and I know the Holy Spirit will comfort you. I wish I could be there.  It was a joy and an honor to be your pastor.  Bro. Jerry
