To the family of Mr. James: What a great man he was! I will always remember his motivation to the worst of us during the Marine's Test, and his kindness to those of us that were never going to be great athletes. He looked out out for the underdog, and yes, his rounds on that Peg Board will always be infamous. It makes me sad to think of him gone- my heart and prayers go out to you-

Sorry for your loss Brooke and family. He was a great guy. I'll miss his smirk, his walk, and his speedy bus driving. Haha. He'd always get us there in one piece. I remember him pulling out a can of Right Guard deodorant when he was trying to teach us the positions of a football team. I still can't remember any other position than right guard (and maybe quarterback). He's someone I won't forget. I'm sure he gave you guys tons of memories too. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Sincerely, Amy Cannon
Shalwar and family, and the James family,

You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
Lovingly,

With much sympathy to the family. Lots of fun memories of physical education classes and riding on his bus.
My sincere sympathy in your loss. Mr. James was my favorite teacher and coach of all time. I often made reference to him as I worked with our coaches at Bloom-Carroll. A true mentor to young athletes and the development of character in young people. He made a difference in my life and many others. R.I.P Coach.
Shalah, Bob and I were sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Prayers to you, Linda, and all of the James' Family.
Brooke and family. So sorry to hear about your dad. thoughts and Prayers are with all of you
God has given us a life span of 70 and 80 years if we are strong. May you celebrate a life well lived and loved by many. Psalms 90:10
Shalah and family...Nancy and Linda...sending you heartfelt sympathy for your loss. Just sitting here having such fond memories of all of you and what you meant to my children and myself...how you touched our lives in so many ways. It will never be forgotten. Please know we're holding you in prayer as you tell Bob good-bye. What a legacy he has left.
My good thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time. He will be missed and thought of fondly. Especially when doing my exercises, "one, two, three, one"
