No parent should have to bury their child, we have no control over when and/or where this will happen, but our Heavenly Father will always be there to comfort and console us when we allow him to help us. Prays for understanding and blessings for the time we are given to love one another.

My heart breaks for our family and friends. I'm praying for strength for us all. Words cannot describe the AMAZING father Xavier was blessed to have. So much so, people, that didn't know James personally, observed Xavier with James and their very special bond. I took comfort in knowing James adored Xavier and Xavier adored him-ever so excited for his adventures with "daddy" I will miss our morning talks, our synchronization with getting Xavier ready for school. I will miss seeing how Xavier looked at his daddy with such admiration--James was definitely his super hero and always will be! I know he will always guard and protect our son from up above.

Judy & Mandi,
I simply cannot imagine the pain and the feeling of being lost that you must be feeling. I want to somehow magically make everything better and take away your pain. I am so...so sorry!!!
In all the years that I've known y'all I never one time felt out of place, I've always felt like I was at home surrounded by family. James Ray was such a joy to be around, damn...the good times that we had over the past 25 years were amazing and I cherish each and everyone of them. You guys all helped me through a painful divorce. The crazy thing about that painful experience was that it brought us closer together and opened the door to many more memories with y'all that I hold dear to my heart!
I can still hear James Ray giving sermons about this and that...I still hear his voice, his laugh and I can still picture his blue eyes getting wider as his excitement builds as he is delivering his story or point. It was always followed with that Hollywood smile of his.
I am proud to have had such a great friend that was always genuinely caring and happy to see me! I will miss so many things about James Ray! Life does not always allow us the opportunity to say goodbye and such is the case here. And maybe that is because it is not goodbye at all?!? Look around, and you will see James Ray everywhere. Listen closely, and you will hear his voice. I believe that here on Earth is only the beginning and ultimately all loved ones are reuinited! James is out on the golf course taking someone's money up stairs!!!
Smile and be proud...James Ray was a good man, a good father, a good son, a good brother and a good friend! He loved y'all very much and I know that he is watching and will be with you protecting you each and everyday! I love y'all and I love you my friend and brother James Ray!!!
