"I am so sorry for your loss. James is a great man, one that made a huge impact on my life. He was my first love and best friend. My prayers are with the family. My deepest condolences also to Michelle and Russ's son. I could feel he was there looking down on us letting us know that he was going to be okay. He is at peace now. And If I know James, the last thing he wants if for all of us to be sad, but instead to be laughing at one of his corny dirty jokes. May you Rest In Peace James...Love you always and forever"

"I?m so sorry to hear this. James was one of my first and best friends in middle school. I loved that kid so much and I missed him dearly over the years. We reconnected briefly many years ago but didn?t keep in touch, tho we tried for awhile. My heart goes out to the whole family. This man had a huge heart and a beautiful soul. I?m so sorry for this loss. May we all find comfort in great memories and may James rest in peace. XO "

" I?ve known James since we were little kids. One of my first memories was when we bumped into each other at the skating rink and I knocked him down by accident and he stared at me like a wild dog. We stood each other down until I had to back down and walk away because he wouldn?t. We were like eight. James was always a standup guy, honest, direct, and wasn?t afraid to speak his mind or the truth. He was my friend and I will Miss him. James I hope to see you on the other side brother, travel well and true."

"James was my first real friend when I moved to Florida. We hung out every weekend for months. I thought he was so crazy when he would come pick me up to go to one of his friends house without any shoes or shirt. That's not normal to a girl from Chicago, but I quickly learned that that was James. He always made me laugh and we always had a good time. I know we haven't been close since I moved to PSL, but I will always appreciate your fun friend love and how you accepted a transplant. It was always special running into you and Jen at the Dolphins games too. The world lost a great guy and I'm sorry for everones loss.?? RIP James."
