James Riley Obituary

Dear LaMond, Adrienne & Billie,
Thinking of you during these difficult times and sending love and prayers your way. We not only lost our barber of 50 years, but also a dear friend. We will forever miss and cherish his conversations & fellowship. Sincerely, John & Eddie Ruth Jordan

So saddened to hear about Jim and your loss. I am out west but would love to see you and Adrienne when I return.

Our deepest sympathies for your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Angela and Ben Mack

My boys loved going to see Jim for their haircuts. They have such fond memories of their time in his chair. I am so grateful for the part he played in their growing years.
I also loved going there and enjoying his joyful attitude and fun stories. He was a special and awesome friend.

Sorry to hear of your loss Jim was a awsome guy there wasn't anything wouldn't to help family out with it brakes my heart he passed so young yet.will surely miss little Jim alot that smile and jiggle laugh of his . Mac and Debbie, Mac is only a call away LaMond.

Memories of Jim Riley are GREAT memories. His laughter was the absolute best. When LaMond and I worked together many years ago, she and Adri lovingly called Jim 'Buff'. Jim had some genuine swag in his seersucker suit and of course every hair was in place. He was a true southern gentleman. My daddy was a mentor to Jim and loved him like a son. I'm betting they're together up in heaven laughing and joking as they did back in the barber shop, and they're probably eating ice cream out of the carton with a fork as they both did here on earth. Much love and sincere condolences to LaMond and Adrienne.

LaMond, Adrienne & Philip,
Please accept my deepest sympathy on the loss of Jim. I feel like I know you all, thanks to Jim's funny little stories over these many years (45?) spent in his chair. He loved you very much. The world has lost a lost a great philosopher of so many disciplines they are too numerous to list. Thank you all for sharing him with long time customers like myself, who probably ran him a little late getting home for dinner more than once. I sure will miss him. Rivers

He was the big brother I never had and was more of an Uncle to me than anyone else.

LaMond , I am truly sorry for your loss. Jim has been cutting my hair for fifty years starting back in 1970 when I was still a teenager.. I always have looked forward to visiting with Jim and talking it up. I will surely miss the times spent with him and again are truly sorry for your family’s loss.

Roddy and Karen Hanahan

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

LaMond I'm so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed getting my haircut and talking and joking a round with him. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Think of you often. Take care "Sam" or Sheila Dattilo now.

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

Jim was my barber for the last six years. Sitting in his chair monthly was a special treat for me. The stories he told were worth the price of a haircut by themselves! Over that period I came to know him as a man of honesty, integrity , and wonderful humor. I will miss him greatly.

KNEW HIM FROM ASHLEY HOUSE,ALWAYS SO NICE.REST IN PEACE JIM..GOD BLESS.
