James Arthur Thornberry III

Good Heart -Troubled Soul

What James was like

James has a good heart. He loved to play jokes on you. He loved to fish. A boy in a man’s body. Always a challenge but very passionate. His life was like the Bible story, “The Little Boy -Peter-Who called Wolf”.

Fondest memories of James

When he played Santa in Elementary school play. He was big for his age. When the sled (supposedly) fell off the roof in the snow, the penguins (children) had to pull him to safety (across the stage). It took five penguins (or children) to pull him across stage. So funny and adorable.
