He developed a love for authentic African Art and designs.  He relished in unique designs. Hutch was a caring soul who loved family gatherings and interacting with loved ones, especially during holidays and birthdays.  His favorite place to celebrate birthdays was Red Lobster. It was the closest he could get to good seafood, similar to what he enjoyed while growing up in Maryland.

James was a great man and father. His family was truly blessed to have him in their lives. He spent the last couple of weeks battling cancer, which he fought hard. He was a true brave soldier to the end. As family, relatives and friends, he gives us all strength and will always be in our hearts. We will gratefully honor his existence every day.
