So sorry to hear of this loss I hadn’t seen James in years, but he was like an Uncle to our Family as well. I remember wearing one of Bea’s Wigs and he told me that I looked like a young Janet Jackson. You couldn’t tell me nothing. LOL. May he Rest In Peace!

Dear Uncle James I’m really going to miss seeing you and talking with you and laughing about old childhood stories .
Thank you for for my first experiences playing instruments like the thimble the drums and the guitar. I use to dance on top of your suitcase while you and your brothers played the drums . I would sing with a brush in my hand I would be so excited to see you when you came home from service when I was little .
Memories like that will last a life time . When you would sing , you sounded just like Luther Vandross and I would ask you to sing all the time . And you always had the best jokes .I’m so thankful you are no longer in pain . You are in my heart forever … I will truly miss you and celebrate your life as long as I exist .
Love Always your niece Rayshawn

The kid’s and I miss you a lot dad!
I was sadden to see you go but I know you’re not suffering anymore. I will forever cherish our final moments with you. Now I can’t go a day without listening to The Great Luther Vandross and Anita Baker. It was an honor having you around!
Love,
Erica, Jay, Bre, Auggie and Ava
