family and kept everyone laughing! He was also known for speaking
his mind whether you agreed or not. Most of us knew not to even
get upset, because we were all use to it! During his final weeks he
was cracking jokes he will be greatly missedl!l
Special Memory from Pastor Farley; "Sunday, August 12, 2018 the
family came together in prayer to rededicate their lives to Christ.
Thoughhe had very little strength, James reached up and grabbed
my hand as a sign of coming into agreement with me and the
family that he too was rededicating his life to Christ! We are
satisfied to know that he isresting comfortably and happily
with Jesus! Amen!"
