James was employed at McDonald’s in Wadesboro, NC for several years before he became disabled due to kidney failure. James remained on dialysis for 15 years.

James was humble and respectful in spirit. He would help out in the home doing what he was able to do. He would always be the first one to speak early in the morning to his family members. He loved his family and would always tell them they looked good when he saw them dressed up. He was a quiet and shy natured person. He didn’t bother anyone and would tend to his own business. If he did anyone wrong he would humbly apologize. James had love in his heart for everyone. He will be missed greatly.

He had many gifts and talents which included a love for art. He could take a sheet of paper and design an object. He also loved to cook and making different types of menu items. We love him but we know that God loves him most. We shall meet again.
