  1. I am so sorry to hear of James’ passing. He was always so pleasant and wore a smile no matter what. We so enjoyed his visits here at Hendricks Hospital Patient Financial Services. The last time I spoke with James was a few weeks before Christmas. He came out into the cold weather all bundled up from riding his scooter. He would bring in a bill to be adjusted off and then sit to warm up before leaving again. We sent him a Christmas Card with a small amount of money in it for Christmas. I hope he was able to see it….We will greatly miss him.
    Love and Hugs to you James.
