Your fiancee at the time of your death who never married, had a child, nor stopped loving you has joined you at heaven's gate. Thirty-six years and seven months of longing for her hero has now become a reality. Her earthly life like yours touched many as she taught many students who owe her a debt of gratitude. She sang in the church choir just days before she left and now she sings with you...

From his brother,
Bernard James
