James was a descent human being with good old fashion values.Granted he had a very firm side but always a kinder side.He was respected as well as loved.He was a provider,hardworker and a wonderfull man.We should remember him for his values and the influence he left behind it was a good and wholesome lesson to learn.I will miss him good night james we love you.
Mr MrsWilliam Norwood says
May God bless you in this time of sadness.

Roses are red vilets are blue I wish you where here and so do you,
you never should have gone until it was time,
you where a good grandpa at all times,
you where a good friend and a good bestfriend you always cared you always loved evryone you cared about now you are happy you feel no more pain I always think of you each and everyday.
Grandpa I love you more and more day by day you never should have gone it was not right you should still be here today instead of there but you are in a better place now and you are looking down on each and everyone.
The Sunday School deticated a book to you.
