About Me My Only Son - James I was a warm Thursday night in Huntsville, Alabama. The date was November 19, 1992. I was staying with my daughter and son-law because I was getting married on November the 27th. I had spent the afternoon with James. We were shopping for a new pair of shoes for the wedding. We argued over a pair of shoes. He wanted the expensive pair. I finally gave in and bought them for him. He was only 18 years old.
