James marched with me in marching band, my senior year. He played Tuba along with myself and two others. He was one the nicest, caring, and gentle guys you could ever meet.

I want to send my deepest sympathy to the family of James Julian Temple The bible tells us we can gain comfort from God, even during times of sorrow. We pray to our heavenly father for help to cope with the sorrow felt from the death of a loved one. By prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. Philippians 46 May you find comfort by relying on our heavenly father and learning more about the blessings of God’s kingdom. Local ministry volunteer
