The few times I had met James I always had a feeling of comfort and kindness that just surrounded him like a halo! He was my Uncle Chucks best friend and our friend too. My thought and prayers to your family and many friends. Rebecca

For Winne and Family: We are saddened to hear about James. Although we will surely miss him we know that he is in a happy and beautiful place. James always planned to visit us in Wisconsin but it never came to pass. We were very fortunate to bring in 2005 with James as we celebrated New Years Eve 2004 together with laughter and good times always to remember. "Save a place for us up there James, for we plan to visit you one day". Blessings!

James and I met while working at the Crowley County Correctional Facility near Olney Springs, Colorado. I have received cards of sympathy and have also received several personal condolences from several of the staff we worked with at the facility. They have all requested that I extend their sympathies to James's family and friends.

I would like to add the following: May the the lord help us all through the grieving process and help us all to remember James at his finest hours..

My condolences to the Dewberry family. I will never forget the fun times we had at Apple, and at the ranch. Especially when we took the horses to Arizona. I will never forget James.

James was a easy-going and kind hearted gentleman who I will miss. He was Best Man when Chuck Ziegler and I married and we had many fun visits between us over the years. God Speed, my friend.

Never have I met a person with such a devotion to family and friends, such a quick smile for strangers, and a passion for life.

I shall miss you dearly Pard.

Twenty four years was too short.

To Harry & family and the Hill family, I wish you spiritual comfort as you cherish fond memories that will always be with you. James was an authentic man that would always lend a helping hand when we worked at Digital Corp., during the 80's.
