When Elizabeth and I were newlyweds we moved to Aldine and met James and Mary at the Aldine Church of Christ. They were tremendous examples to us and we observed and learned from being in there home and how they loved each other and raised there children. James was always so calm and collected. I admired him greatly. Our sincere condolences to Mary and there children.
