I was so fortunate to be a friend and spend some time with James just not enough.... His soul was larger than life and I was always in complete fascination with him. He left an everlasting impression on me with his gentle and childlike manner. I have funny memories of James and John arguing like two kids. I cannot say enough about James, He touched me like not many in my life have. What a beautiful man. He will be deeply missed
