    My beloved grandson, James Barrett, is now at peace with our Lord Jesus. We who are left behind still grieve, but he doesn’t have these issues any longer and for that I say Praise the Lord!

    Thank you for your service, Jame. This entire community still mourns the loss of your brilliant smile and presence. We admire your family and pray for their comfort as Cherie works deligently to promote awareness of PTSD. Enjoy your peace in the arms of God.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I love and miss you guys. I live in far N. Ft Worth on the same street as my daughter, Jill and her family. This week she just had her 6th child. Her oldest is 13 and the youngest is 5 plus the new baby. Chad and his kids live in the Austin area. His daughter has a 10 month old daughter and his son just graduated high school and starts college in the fall. I am truly blessed!
