James was preceded in death by his wife, Janie Mae; his father, Frank; brothers, Claude, Frank Jr., Shelly Paul, and Edward; sister, Geraldine Peggins. He leaves to cherish his memories, Daughter, Gena (T.S.); four grandchildren, Janie, James, Alysha and Britney; brothers, Desmond (Faye), Anthony; sister, Gloria (Bob); great-grandchild, Damarcus; and a host of additional family and friends. God saw the road was getting rough The hills too hard to climb So he gently closed those weary eyes And whispered "Peace be Thine"
