J&K Layman wrote a sympathy message

“We were able to visit with James once a week for the last couple of years. He was unfailingly kind and appreciative, always with a twinkle in his eyes and a smile on his face. He could be a tease or a serious conversationalist. We'll miss him and send God's surrounding peace to his friends and his family. Kay & Jim”
