  • My brother JB

    Eight years ago today, We lost my younger brother JB. In honor of his memory, I present the following:


    James Edward Berry


    James E. Berry, “JB” departed this life on January 14th, 2005 at 48 years of age.
    After graduation from Wills Point High School, JB received an advanced Communications degree from University of Texas-Dallas. He was employed as an Information Systems Specialist at Collin County Community College in Frisco where he oversaw daily operations in the Computer Sciences Laboratories.
    JB’s final days were spent in the hospital where complications from surgery took him from us… Friends and family surrounded him as he crossed to the other side and was welcomed into God’s Kingdom.
    James Edward Berry was a kind man, “who never met a stranger”… he shared his eclectic personality with all those he came into contact with. While JB lived a wonderful, quick paced lifestyle in the city, nothing pleased him more than returning to Wills Point for occasional visits and camaraderie with old friends. He had the love of many people that had the good fortune to cross his path over his shortened lifetime.
    As JB has gone before us, he would ask that each of us not dwell excessively on his passing, but rather to remember him for a life well lived with exuberance and enthusiasm.

    Thanks for reading.

                          Thanks everyone, for the nice thoughts.

                          For those curious, I wrote the tribute above for my Brother's page on the Memorial Table for his 35th High School Reunion in 2010 (hence the references to education and returning to visit old friends).

                          As my Mother and I reminisced this morning about his untimely passing, the thought of a
                          forum thread in his honor seemed appropriate for today.

                          I'm sure he would be thrilled if he could see it (and maybe he can) and know his image is still floating around in cyber space many years after his demise.

                          We miss him dearly.
