Sherry, Kay, and Family,
I am so sorry about the passing of James. He was one fine man! I always enjoyed talking to him and playing dominoes with him and Roberta. I told Maddie, my granddaughter that he had died and she cried. She loved him. God has a new angel!
Blessed be,
Betty Lou

Sherry, Kay and Family,
James had a wonderful personality and always had a smile on his face whenever I saw him. Visited with him often at Lincoln Care Center these past several years. May God Bless and Comfort you in your loss

I am saddened by the loss of James. He was my friend and I knew it. I am glad of the memories
we shared both professionally and at the care center. My regret is with my health situation I was unable to visit .
My prayers are with the family and may God bless you all.
