My prayers to Jim's family on their loss. He was a dear friend and great listener when he came to visit my library at the VA Medical Center. He will be missed, and always remembered for his infectious smile and good nature.

My sincerest condolences to the entire Dixon Family. I met James a number of times over the course of the many years that I worked with and for his brother, Charles at the 282CBCS in Coventry and North Smithfield.

I have held your family in the highest regards from afar for as long as I've known you all. He was a good man; and you are all good people. So sorry.

Dear Joe-Annie and Family, Please accept my deepest and most sincere condolences on the loss of your beloved husband, James. We became acquainted when I delivered food from the SERVE Program to his mother one Saturday morning several years ago and have been friends ever since. We shall miss him, but I want you all to know that you are in my thoughts and in my prayers as you grieve the loss of your loved one. Be strong and continue to hold onto God's unchanging hand. He will supply all of your needs now and in the days ahead.
In Sympathy and with Love,
