No greater legacy can a man leave on Earth than that of his children. Although I have only met James on several occasions, I have worked with his son Jon at the police department now for over 20 years and James truly had something to be proud of in his son.
Jon, my prayers are with your family and I thank you for your friendship. You gave a true meaning to your fathers life and I know he was proud of you. God bless you in this time of loss.
Your friend, Jeff Biles
Jon and family -
I will pray for GOD to hold you all close during this sad time. May you be comforted knowing that your father is with the living Christ.
