Our heartfelt condolences to Betty and the Willis families. James was a true family man, Deacon, neighbor, and friend. He loved to argue with you. He'd smile when you finally gave up. That was his way of liking your company. Our Prayers are with you all and for you all for Peace, Comfort, and Strength during this time and afterwards. The Poole, Cobb, Cromer, Harris, Scott-Hester, Scott, Pridgon, Cooper, Banks, Bonds, Hunter, Black, Francis, Jackson, and Engram families.

Sincere condolences to Aunt Betty and family. Uncle James will truly be missed, I'll especially miss the way he tried to play a bad guy knowing deep down inside he was a piece of cake. If you really knew him you would agree. Now, he is done with this world, no tears, pain or suffering anymore those things have passed away (Re21:4) He is asleep now awaiting the resurrection (Acts 24:15)so until... Love Betty Moore and family ❤️ Miami , Florida
