Uncle James was always smiling, I can't recall not seeing a smile on his face. He was always our "COOL" Uncle. James had his own special "cool cat" handshake for us kids and we'd all line-up to do that cool cat handshake with him. He never missed a birthday with a special card every year and really neat stamps! When my daughter Holley heard the sad news about Uncle James, she told Lori and me that she has every card that James ever sent her. That says a lot coming from a young lady who has lived in over a dozen locations through out Georgia, Florida, and Colorado... about the love we all had for James and just how special he was to us all. I am definitely a better man for having James, and the rest of the Spikes family, as a big part of my life, all of whom have been a strong and positive influence, and moral compass. Until we meet again James, forever my COOL CAT Uncle. I love you.
James was a wonderful man and took great care of our Mother. He was a fine example of a sweet, soft spoken, southern gentleman. The two of them would travel and enjoy visiting friends and family all over the world and had a safe and happy retirement together. We are so grateful that he came into our lives. We love you James, and we'll miss you. Rodger and Candy.
