This week has been a traumatic one for the James family. My sweet grandfather, Garth Anderson James, is having massive medical problems and will be taken off his ventilator Saturday and his funeral will be next week. He has been such a guiding force in my life. I've always looked up to him as the epitome of a stalwart strong patriarch who has taught me so much about the gospel and how to live it. I have the fondest memories of him, his wonderful home where I spent treasured moments, and his life. I feel honored and blessed to have had my grandpa seal me to Scott and give me the richest blessings I can receive.
I will dearly miss him but know he's going to a much better place, to reunite with loved ones and meet our Creator. He's lived a long, full life and made many people better for being placed on this earth. All I feel is love in my heart when I think of him. Please pray that his last moments on earth will be peaceful and he'll feel comfort. He is the best man.
