Pat, James Jr and Farron....

My heart is heavy with prayers for you all. I wish I could be there to comfort and hug you all, but please know - I am there in prayers and love. James Sr was such a joy, his sense of humor was the light of every room he was in. He will be greatly missed by everyone that had the privilege to know him. To know him was to love him.
Patricia, you have been such a light through all the years I have known you and even more in the last few that we have gotten to spend more time together. You are an inspiration with your smile and tenderness that you share to all. I love you sweet lady and I will be praying for you through this all and the days to come.
Jr and Farron - You guys are both in my heart. I know the hole losing a dad leaves and I pray you each find comfort in know where he is today. He and your mom raised you both to know that the reward he is living now is greater than all his days here with us. I love you guys!

Pat and boys, I'm sorry to hear about the passing of James.

I have never seen another family with so much laughter.

James was such a good friend to us while he & Pat lived in Austin. He was always willing to help us in any way, and always had fun, whatever he did. We traveled to Hawaii
one year, and we all had a blast. Too much to say, but to Pat, James Jr,
and Farron, and the rest of the family, we send our love and heartfelt sympathy. James will be missed, but never forgotten, we love you all.

Kelly and I love James, Pat and the boys/men now. Pat was my first new friend at a new church which also included James and the boys of course. The boys were young teenagers. I remember a couple of funny incidents. One day the boys dug a huge hole in the front yard for a swimming pool...another afternoon they took apart a new riding mower.. kind and very long suffering father. Funny now! Praying for Pat and all the family. We love you.
