James,
I just wanted to let you know that I think of you every day..my life will never be the same now that your gone, it never will…the pain of you leaving is still as intense  as the day it happened..I know that you were in a bad way and that you felt like you had no other options, and I totally understand, more than you will ever know. I just wished you had talked to me about it. We could have gotten through it, fixed it, you would still be here..annoying me, creating complete and beautiful chaos, coming up with insane ideas (like the motorcycle in our basement ).  I love you and always will…

James in his happy place…fishing at our trailer..never caught much, except maybe a cold because the water was freezing…

This is from my last Birthday celebration with you and our beautiful family in May of 2020. Not only was it my Birthday, but the day you proposed to me in front of all of our girls….and of course I said YES!

it has bin 2 years sins u have left i miss u so much i love u so much  

James,
It’s been two years now since you left.. there is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about our last conversation… or if maybe if the conversation went differently that you would still be here…I remember all the songs you sang to me, all the picture you drew for me… all the memories and plans that we made…all the silly and happy moments  and mostly the ones of all the love…I still feel you with me..and I know you are watching down over all our girls and our granddaughters and the little one that is on his/her way…I miss you so much xo

James !   You had a heart of gold!  Always there for the people & family  that you loved.   You were their when Ryan was sick . You & your mom. Thankyou!  Ryan loved you. You were his fishing buddy.  We are so glad we got to see see at your campsite this past summer. We seen you & your beautiful daughters. Nephew  and his mom.  Had a wonderful time. Ryan is going to miss you big time!  We all are.  You going to be in heaven now with your wonderful kind hearted mom.  Rest In Peace !  We will always love you! ❤️❤️❤️😅

I just heard about your passing. I know we drifted apart over the years but I will forever be your Aunt Sandy. Please give your mom a hug for me. I hope you finally find peace.

Had a many a good chat with ya about life and other things in Jerry's garage...you were a kind soul. It's sad, today on your 40th birthday... we all meet at the funeral home. When we should be meeting at a bar. 
Rest easy my friend! I'll raise one for you tonight. 

There isn’t a moment that goes by that I don’t think about you and wish that we could have had the tiny wedding ceremony that we both wanted with our family and friends by our sides.  I remember once you even suggested getting married while we were fishing... could you imagine? Pausing the ceremony so one of us wouldn’t let the big one get away? You were my everything and I will love you forever...and keep the promise I made you...
