To the family of James:
May there now be peace love and joy for a friend that I have dearly missed. James and I worked and traveled on the L&N for many years. We worked together and later I became his boss(I never felt that way). We worked the entire system and later he became the supervisor at Radnor Yards and I was the Ast Div Enginer. We did many jobs together and he was one of my dearest friends. We were together in many ways and worked on many projects over the years. Time has past and I am 80ys old myself. I took an early retirement when the railroad split up. I stayed in Nashville with my family. I often thought of him, but I figured he went back to FL. We shared many times together. May he rest in peace.
