May the memory of James linger and thoughts of his humor give you the strength to go on. James (Wildman) was more than a friend, he was like a brother and I will truly miss him.
Although my heart is heavy today, I will forever remember and hold dear all of the memories that we shared throughout the years...

To Our Brother James:
You are in a better place now than you ever been before.
All pain is gone; You are now at rest; nothing troubles you anymore.
It's we who feel the burden of our sadness and grief; We have to cry, to mourn our loss, before we get relief.
We know we'll reconnect with James at the end of each life's road.
We'll see his cherished face again when we release our earthly load.
So rest on Brother, rest on.
