Bio by Angel Kirstin's Mommy Contributor #46602501: James was a great man. He was married to a great women Donna Goode. I met him when I was 16 years old. He was a youth pastor at the church that I attended. He found out that he had aids in 1993 and died on July 20, 1994. This man was barred from working with the children of the church because people did not understand the Disease at all. James was a saved man. The day he went home to be with Jesus, a lot of lives changed that day. James "Jim" served our country proudly in the military. Cause of Death AIDs.
Songs Played at funeral were:
"The Dance" Garth Brooks and "In Moments Like These"
The following poem was in his Memorial card.
The Masters Bouquet
The Master walked in His garden,
Picking flowers along the way;
He plucked one of my loved ones,
To add to his Bouquet.
My heart at first was broken,
At the loss of one so dear;
But the tears I shed just washed my eyes,
So I saw His way more clear.
My Lord has a need for just this one,
For the pattern He has in mind;
But is hard for the rest of us to see,
Why we must be left behind.
Perhaps we are not ready to go yet,
We may need to ripen more;
To teach the full blown fragrance,
My Lord is waiting for.
To each give fourth a fragrance,
To each we chance to meet;
We should each be trying day by day,
To make our fragrance sweet.
So I'm going to try my very best,
Tobe Loving and Kind Each day;
So at last I'll be counted worthy,
To be part of my Master's Bouquet.
