To the family of James, please accept our condolences, and may God bless you all. A long time friend, growing up in the same neighborhood, and attending schools in Combes and Harlingen. I had the pleasure of working with him at Ferguson Motors in the late 60's. Rest in Peace my friend.

Our condolences to the whitish family. Jim was a very truly good friend to our 2 boys Gilbert Jr & Javier Canales. He would address them as how are my boys doing. He would always joke with Javier. He would picked them up for bingo when they didnt have a ride. You will truly be miss by them and so many friends too. Prayers to the family.

Sorry to read about James passing. I remember when he worked at Ferguson Motors years ago. My dad always told us-you only talk to James about your car cause he´ll make sure it will be fixed right!! And that is what we would do. James was a good guy!!
Prayers for Espi and family.
