Jamie was a good friend to so many of us "young girls" in the 50's from Draper PHC when we would attend Christian View Camp Meeting. Love & Prayers to his Family.

I would like to offer my sympathy to the family of a man that spoke of his family that he loved so much. While caring for Jamie at the Brian Center we had many talks, he loved when he would make a visit home and would talk of all the good food all of you had prepared.He loved tomatoe sandwiches, being outside when the weather would allow and listening to Elvis and gospel music. He was a very special man he loved caring for all the pretty flowers he had and taking care of them while he could and getting up riding his scooter to make a call home. Jamie was a good friend and buddy and will be missed while I type this I can remember how happy Jamie was when he got the typewriter so many special things you did for him made him so happy.Praying for friends and family to be comforted and faith to uphold you and this time and loving memories to carry you through.Joe Ann Goad RCS/CNA

I was so sorry to hear of Jamie's passing! I was looking on Fair's web site for someone and when I seen Jamie's picture, my heart sank. It's been many years since I seen him but I have wonderful memories of his kindness and especially his smile. I was the little girl that stayed with Ramona Grogan all the time and Jamie would go places with us. We would always go get something to eat after the church camp meetings. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
