James, you and Jackie were the first people I knew in The Church of God of Prophecy. Thank you and my Jackie Jac knew. To your wife and remaining family, I know your loss, I have lost a Dad, a Grandpa, an uncle, a brother, a cousin and a friend. MRS Taylor, I cannot imagine your loss. I am so sorry. To his stepchildren, I can only sympathize. No matter what the relationship, whether I can empathize or sympathize, but no matter what the relationship; it hurts. If I can say one thing that stands out to me regarding James, I can only say he was a preaching machine! God bless you as you will be missed by your family and friends. Rest in peace, Man of God. Home at last!

My Dear Great Uncle James, it seems I was just a child the last time I seen you. Every time I did you were playing a guitar. I remember your loving smile and visiting you all in Arkansas, and Morley playing the gospel with Uncle Rickey , Reccie (your son) at Aunt Nancy's house. Tell the family hello for me on that note.
