Leon Basham wrote a sympathy message

“I loved my Uncle James. Life gets busy and people move around, but being distant in the physical sense never impacted my love for him. I will miss his wonderful smile, laughter and our conversations. I wish that I could physically be there for each of you at this time but I cannot. I will continue to lift you in prayer. Specifically I will pray that each of you feel the loving arms of God cradling you like a child to take away your pain and tears. Pastor Leon Basham, Asbury UMC, Newport News, VA”
