James had a huge heart and loved everyone he met. He didn’t get to do a lot of things in life that he had plans to but I can share some of those things with you. He never got a chance to learn to drive or cook and he really wanted to do both of those things. He loved gymnastics and football which is an odd combo but his favorite team was the Green Bay Packers. He wanted to go to Texas tech to get his master’s degree in internet engineering, he loved working with computers and was so smart. He had plans to come home and have his first birthday with all his family, he wanted it to be a masquerade ball. He was so full of life and missed out on so much, none of it was his choice. He really wanted to get to know his whole family. He really loved everyone. He will be missed so much.
My sweet James, God took you so early. You were mine for 5 years, as a foster child. The system is so broken, James you were like my own child, I loved you and I know you loved me. But, the state decided that since your school behavior didn’t meet there standards, they ripped you from my home, put in Residential Treatment. You did not need that, you needed to stay with a family that loved you unconditionally.
Fly high now my sweet boy🙏🙏🙏.
With love,
Mom Alice
