It is with a heavy heart that I write to tell you that our dear James Slade died on February 5th, 2026. It is a very painful moment for our family right now, and we are trying to arrange for the funeral. We want to give James Slade a respectful service that celebrates who they were and how much they were loved. However, the cost of the funeral expenses has created a financial challenge as this was unexpected. To help cover these costs, we’ve started a GoFundMe. Any contribution, no matter the size, would mean so much to us.
