James’ obituary states that he was not survived by any children. Instead, he was survived by “his many friends, including the ones who sat with him and cared for and comforted him at home in his final months and days.” People are being asked to donate to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) in his memory. May he rest in peace.
