James was born in Marshall, Texas on June 2, 1942 and entered into Eternal Rest on October 13, 2015 at his home in Corona,
After high school James joined the U.S. Navy proudly serving his country during the Vietnam War.

James is survived by his siblings Gloria, Opal and Odell. He also leaves behind his daughter Octavia and many other family members.
