We will miss you daddy! I love you so much. Thank you for being our rock for so many years and the knowledge you bestowed on us during your time on earth. You are now at home with Jesus and looking down on us. Say hi to Papa Billy and GG for me. I love you so much! - your daughter Leah

Bubba, although I only met you once in person, I felt like I got to know you most through your sister Tanya. She spoke so highly of you. She had plans of us having Bible studies with you because she said you knew and taught the Word, so well. She also said that you can sing and play the guitar well, so we can all worship together. Although that never came to fruition here in this earth, I know one day soon, in Heaven that's exactly what we will be doing! I know your loved ones will miss you til then , but you are with your Lord. and Savior, Jesus Christ and I tell you, I am jealous! My prayers are for those you have left behind. Until we all meet again....

I have so many memories with James. I always kinda took pride in “being a thrown in his side”. When Denise was pregnant with Becca, I use to tease him that she was gonna be just like, a pat back for giving me a hard time. As it turned out, that is exactly what happened. Make me laugh even today, My hearts hurts for my nephews and nieces. In your sorrow, try to smile and laugh at the great and funny memories. I love you all so much.
