With heartfelt condolences,
Thinking of you during this time….I was surprised years ago to find out James loved houseplants…..He gave me a big Jade plant that I still have and is one of my favorites.
I’m his experience wife and I remember that he tought me how to drive, and the best thing is that we made 3 gorgeous boys, I will always have him in my heart, as well as his family,,God bless the Day family.
It’s hard to narrow it down to just one memory because I had so many amazing memories with my Uncle. I will miss him dearly and and I’m still in shock with losing him so suddenly oh suddenly.
