Phyllis : I just learned of the passing of James today. May all the wonderful memories help ease the pain a little. I know he is happy with Jeanette and Peanut. May God bless you and your family. Trust in The Lord and he will get you through. I can just see him and Raymond arguing about who had the best rabbit dogs.
