Michelle – I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers now and in the days ahead.
My brother and I had the privilege of speaking with to our cousin, David, last summer. He was in the hospital at the time, yet his kind, joyful, and uplifting spirit could be felt across the miles. He was reminiscent of the good times he had “down home” with his family here in Ft Mitchell. He will truly be missed, and we send our condolences to all those who are grieving this profound loss.David, rest well…
Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire James family and friends. He struggled with his illness as hard as anyone could. At least now he can rest in peace.
Rest in peace my friend l always enjoyed taking care of you when u had to make a trip to the Babtist ER no more pain for you you’re in God’s care now .
Family,
I will always cherish those childhood memories of our family get together. David’s laughter is the most unforgettable. To me, his laughter is a bridge between a life lived and the hope of internal spiritual peace with our heavenly father.
Cousin, Elaine and family
