Happy 62nd Birthday!

We think of you always!

Happy 61st Birthday James!

61st

November 5th, 2011 – James’ Memorial

Ten years ago today, Redwing generously hosted a memorial for James.  They provided a feast and it was a wonderful celebration of his life and the people he touched along the way.  Thanks to everyone that was able to make it.

10 Years…1 Decade

A bit of a warning…the following images are a bit graphic in nature and hard to look at.  They show the toll that cancer takes on the body while James was fighting to survive each day.  But these are the most recent pictures we have of him.

It’s October 22, 2011.  Kabir’s birthday and just 3 days before the inevitable.  He got to celebrate one last birthday with one of his best friends.

When we celebrated this year, we were thinking of you, James.  We miss you!

 

 

Happy Birthday James!

Today would have been his 60th birthday.  Wow.  A 60 year-old James.  Would have liked to have seen it.

2020…9 Years

Nine years ago we lost James.  It’s unbelievable that it’s been that long.  Seems like yesterday we were arguing about something stupid on the couch in our living room or playing scrabble or  shopping or just hanging out.  You are missed.

This is the year that I’d really have loved to see how James would have reacted to everything that’s happening.  How would he have coped with Covid and Republicans’ behavior, especially Trump?  I wish I knew.

Dobson’s is closed today and the Boat House, your second choice back in 2011, has permanently shuttered.  We still remember you and think of you often.  Always in our hearts and minds.

Happy Birthday James!

As the world is currently reeling from a pandemic, I can’t help but wonder how you would be reacting to all of this and most certainly you’d be helping make this more bearable with your humor and wit.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday James!

7 years now

Sadly, today Mark’s the 7th anniversary of our tragic loss.  We’ll celebrate James life as is tradition at Dobson’s again tonight at 7pm local time.

Thank you for your Birthday Wishes…

Thank you for your Birthday Wishes…

You are Too Sweet!
