James Jennings was my uncle.  Uncle Jim was the best uncle anyone ever could want- I was born while he was still in high school and was spoiled rotten.

Uncle Jim had 6 children of his own but always had time for me. He left this earth much to soon-I miss him.  He died at age 60. It is a mystery to me why when this earth is filled with some really horrible people that my Uncle Jim had to be taken. I Cherish the time he was here, he made the world a nicer place to be.
