LET ALL WHO VISIT BE BLESSED WITH LOVE AND PEACE
James Herman Uptmore III (J.J.) went to live with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and his best friend and brother, Shelton, on March 6, 2014. He was born in San Antonio, Texas on March 4, 1986 to Tracy Killian Uptmore and James Herman Uptmore, Jr., (Sonny). He was a life-long member of St. Mark the Evangelist Church where he received early Christian education, sacraments and participated in many sports activities and AACTS retreats which became a true blessing. J.J. graduated in 2004 from Ronald Reagan High School. He received a BBA degree from Texas A&M University with a double major in Management and Supply Chain Management earning a 3.8 GPA in 2009, continuing a proud legacy of Aggies.
The eldest of five brothers, he led them as they went adventuring, always caring for their needs and safety. Love and respect characterized all of J.J.'s family relationships, but he was especially close to his younger brother Shelton John Uptmore, who preceded him in death in 2007. Being the best father he could be to his small son, "Cuatro", was J.J's greatest joy and passion. He loved the outdoors, the beach, music and spending time with his friends.
He is survived by his son, James Herman Uptmore IV; his parents; grandparents, brothers, and dearly loved by 24 cousins and numerous aunts and uncles.
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die
{{{Rest in Peace James}}}
