Jim was a great guy, and always had a smile and a good word for you. I had the privilege of serving with him both in Vietnam and at Fort Rucker, Alabama. Jim talked often of his home and family in the Dallas/Carrollton area. You're truly missed, buddy!

James was a wonderful person, a good friend, and a loving fiancee. He always joked and smiled and tried to keep everyone in good spirits. He wasn't afraid of hard work and he wasn't afraid to admit that there were days he was scared. But he did the job he was trained to do. I salute James for his bravery, and I send love for his memory. You will always be remembered--Buttons. Love, Dale |
