My aunt's brother
I
didn't know Jimmy personally.
My uncle has told me some about him.
I just wanted to take a minute to honor him.
God Bless you Jimmy.~Mick

High
School Memory
James
Cazares was known affectionately during his high school days as "Chic."
He was a year ahead of me in high school at Mt. St. Mary's in Oklahoma
City, OK. He graduated in 1965. He was my first date. He was the only
person who had the nerve to ask my father to take me to a sock hop.
He was present when I got my first traffic ticket. We were racing
each other. He got a ticket too. I was late for curfew. He was honorable
always and I miss his smile and gentle laugh. His memory will never
fade. ~Melanie
