                Harriett and Family, We will surely miss James coming into our clinic. He was so sweet and humble and always talked about how you witnessed and prayed for him. We believed God's words did not return to Him void.....; may you continue to live a godly life for others- your brother boasted about your walk in Christ. I always asked him, "What about your life?" He always laughed and said, I'm listening to her; I'm going to her church; I'm gonna do what's right......." May his soul be with our Father and May each of you be thankful for the time he spent with you. God's love, peace, and comfort rules in your hearts. Eileen, Clara, and Jackie- Angel Oak Family Medicine Staff
                This is bittersweet, but I understand God is fair in all He does. I will miss you more than words can express. I love you my dear brother and nothing can ever ever take that away. Your big sister Harriett , as we always said although you were the oldest by age, it was proven that I took over and became the oldest out of all of us with wisdom. 😭😭😭😭
                My prayers and condolences goes out to your family
