> Dear Friends and Family,
>
> As all of you know our father, James, has been fighting the battle of
> his life with cancer and recently pneumonia. This morning the battle
> ended and he passed away peacefully in the early morning hours at a
> nursing home in Denton, near my brother Mike. My mother and Mike's
> family were with him at his bedtime.
>
> The last week we spent with him in the hospital was filled with many
> conversations about those of you on this email list. He loved his
> friends and family and felt like he lived a blessed and wonderful
> life. The suffering is finally over and now he finds peace. He was
> very spiritual and was not afraid to pass. I think he was saying his
> goodbyes last week in his own way.
>
> Keep us in your prayers and we go from here. I will let you know the
> details on a memorial most likely to be held in Ft. Worth.
>
> If you have a special photo or memory that you would like to share
> with the family, please email that to me at debraherr@aol.com.

> Love,
