James was a great friend and someone who always made life fun. There are three memories I have that are classic James. We visited Tokyo and he took all of these great pictures, then he forgot the camera in the Taxi! The 2nd is a tailgate that we had for a UH game. It was a small group, so James was in charge of the meat. We packed the car, headed to the stadium, got the hibachi going, then I asked "Where's the meat?". Check the back seat. Nope. Check the trunk. Nope. Where's the last place you saw it? On the sidewalk next to the car. LOL. Tailgate with all the sides and no meat. At least we had some poke. The last was an event we attended. The guy at the front asked James "what kind of pass do you have?". James, thinking he said pants, gave a puzzled look. Then he blurted out "Dockers". The guy just rolled his eyes and said, "Pass, not pants!" A lot of great memories ... I will miss you.
James was my credit manager and very good friend at my former place of employment, Hagadone Printing Company. We traveled to the Phillippines, several times manufacturing NFL jerseys and NBA jerseys for family and friends. We would pick up knock off purses for the ladies in our mailing department. Imagine 2 guys carrying all those purses. I was not thrilled. He would just crack up with that goofy laugh of his... as we both tried to fit inside of a trike..He dragged me to Vegas at least a dozen times. ( twist my arm, lol ) He taught me how to play craps....On one trip, we over slept and missed our flight back home, giving up our first class seats...We both lost money on that trip, so I had to use my credit card. It took us a day to get home via SF in row 40...He looked at me and said " you so Stupid brah, how come you over sleep "?  He did not talk to me the entire flight back...The next day at work he asked me if I wanted to get  lunch like nothing ever happened.....lol.. Surprisingly he did not eat Myrna's tasty home cooked lunch..  We booked a Mexican cruise with the Abreu family., where I took ill 2 days before  departure. We split a $2,800 State Room Suite, where he totally enjoyed it by himself.  He would send me pictures to rub it in...Everyone that knew James will alway remember the goofy laugh and his famous words..." no be stupid brah "...Always laughing and joking. Everyone loved him..We had more travel plans to explore the world...He was taken way to young from all of us! :(  I tried many attempts to reach out to him within the last year...I know James, he would like me to remember only the great times we shared...I will truly miss my good friend /brother " Abreu" as I would call him. Rest In Peace James!! until we meet again.... Jeff Texeira
Missing you always, JP. Kisses to you and all our family that has gone before us. Love and aloha cousin. Michele Ventura Karlegan.
James, I can't believe you are gone. Even though it's been years since I have seen you, I will always remember your goofy laugh and all the dumb stuff you made me, Johnalyn and Kim do when we were in high school. 4 wheeling in some school in Manoa was the highlight of my high school experience!Even though I can't be there in person to say farewell to you, I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers. Rest easy, James...you will never be forgotten.
I miss you my bro! Everything you did was on God's timing and you accepted what God had planned for you💜💛 I will never forget all of our random phone calls just to touch base and the laughter and silliness we shared ! See you later my guardian angel😘
