Michelle Graham wrote a sympathy message

“In loving memory of James Robert Whitham Jr., To someone who I once knew as my 'Uncle Jim' many years ago. Seeing the photo, along with the announcement that this big, burly and gentle soul I knew some 29 years ago had passed, made my heart hurt. My mother is Delpha's only child and Grandpa Buck was always 'pop'. When they were both gone, I suppose time & distance took their place. Sending my biggest 'Uncle Jim' hug back to you. God bless. May your heart and soul find peace and comfort.”
