My tribute to James David Eunice on Christmas Eve! As difficult as this year has been I know because of Jesus Christ I have hope and confidence for eternity. I love the dancing and spunk of this video! It's probably the song James is singing right now around the Throne of God! But if I'm going to be honest, he does a much better job with the dance moves than the guys in the video! Can't wait to see my boy again!

Video is posted on the video page of the website.

Joy is a popular word this time of year. It's defined as a state of happiness. It also happens to be the name of one of James' favorite teachers, and I know James was always a source of joy for her. The word joy has always meant a great deal in our household with all three children through the years, especially during the Christmas season as we pause to reflect on the many blessings in our life. This year is quite different. A big reason for our joy is missing this year, and we've been throug...

James went missing one month ago today. I miss him so much, and think about him all of the time. Tonight was a celebration though. We attended the Wildcat Football Banquet along with his teammates, other parents, coaches and boosters. It was a great event, and I know James would have loved it. James won the Howard Bridges Scholastic Award for the highest GPA on the team. He had a 3.95 GPA. It was so good to see so many of his good friends, including Jay, Yontell, and Zach, win awards as well....

Sitting at the computer tonight across the hall from James' room. Sure is quiet with no guitar or Ipod music I don't understand. We miss James, but we know how he lived, and how he loved God, loved life, and loved others. To quote Ernest Hemingway, "Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another."

Based on the lives he touched, I'd have to say that James distinguished himself in a very positive way. I wil...

Kaeleigh Farrish wrote the following note on the second of February, three days before James' service.  She and her family are very dear friends of ours.  Kaeleigh is the daughter of Dan and Pam Farrish.  Dan is one of my very best friends, and they watched James grow through the years whenever we were fortunate enough to get together.  Thanks for sharing this Kaeleigh.

Remembering James: "Take time to love someone"

We received a phone call this morning before church. When I picked up the phone, Sheriff Chris Prine was on the other end. Normally those kind of calls are never good, but Sheriff Prine was just checking on us as he was driving to Sunday School. Sheriff Prine is one of our favorite people. This goes back to January 15th when he walked up to us that first evening and told us, "we're not leaving until we find James." He passed along to us that the dive team had used the dry suits and equipment ...

I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand

Felt so good in it, no bigger than a minute

How it amazes me, you're changing with every blink

Faster than a flower blooms they grow up all too soon

So let them be little 'cause they're only that way for a while

Give them hope, g...

Love Has Come

Mark Schultz

VERSE 1:

I know this life is filled with sorrow

And there are days when the pain just lasts and lasts But I know there will come a day When our tears are washed away With a break in the clouds His glory coming down And in that moment

CHORUS:

Every knee shall bow

Every tongue confess

That God is lov...
