Sending our Thoughts & Prayers for Gods Grace & Mercy💔

James Garver was without a doubt one of the sweetest young men I have ever known. He had a spirit about him that was engaging, caring and loving. He was one of those young men who would light up a room as soon as he entered it. I had known James since he was a young boy and when he got older he worked at our company for a time. As was his way, he engaged everyone around him and we loved having him around. As hard as it is to see him go, I know that James had a relationship with Jesus and I also believe he is with Him now and we will see him again. If I had to guess, he is probably cracking people up and very involved in politics (if there even is politics in heaven). 

Grieving with you, Terri and Andy!  Praying!

James and I went to High school together.  He was always very kind and a joy to be around. He always made jokes and made me laugh and made my day brighter. It's sad to see him gone so soon. Will always love you bro. <3

James was such a bright and wonderful soul, and so talented! I was honored to know him for almost 6 years, and his memory will always be an inspiration to me and others who knew him. Love and prayers of comfort to his family and Lauren and all of his loved ones.

Sweet little James was in my daycare class back at FBCPG when he was 3.... he was always full of grins and giggles! I was so sad to hear he had passed away.... I am praying for the Garver family. Love and hugs! 

We worked together since you started at mayfield and we have became tight me you and justin over the last year have became brothers i love you bro and hope you are enjoying it up there bro take care and rest well brother 

James has been my best friend since the fourth grade. I never would have thought I would have to be writing this message for him today. It is with a heavy heart and unyielding sadness that I must say goodbye to you now.  You were like a brother to me. We have been through everything together, the up's and down's, to fun vacations, to lazy Sunday's. Everyday was a new adventure for us.  Even on the darkest of days, you could always make me laugh. I still can't believe you're really gone. I keep thinking I'm going to get a phone call from you, telling me your alright.  I always thought we would grow old together and reminisce on all the crazy things we did when we were young.  I don't understand why god would take such a kind person from this world... you will be missed dearly.  I hope to see you again one day in heaven.  Until then, fly high brother. I love you man.  

My son & James have been friends since the 3rd grade.  He was a big part of my sons life!  They made me laugh & sometimes want to pull my hair out! My favorite memory was when we went kayaking in Tennessee! James was having a blast spinning in circles trying to get down river.. we got stuck on rocks & had to rescue him... he always had a smile on his face and made me laugh.  He was a sweet soul .. my son is devastated.. he told me yesterday that he thought him & James would be old men laughing about all the things they had done .. we will truly miss him😔 our prayers go out to his family in this horrible time .. fly high sweet James with the angels!!!❤️
