You were the best Papa anybody could ever be. You generally joined with me, and I adored making bird houses, fires, and simply conversing with you each other weekend. Its hard being so far away, and I truly wish I could have seen you once again. You will be in my supplications to God consistently, and there's never a night when I don't think of you.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Kathy and their family in their time of grief and sorrow.
One of my best friends growing up together. Had so much fun in East End. Sorry I hadn't seen him in a long time. Thoughts and prayers are with you all.
you will surely be missed Uncle James we love you.
