IMPACT
The measure of a persons life should not be measured by the time they spent on this earth. The measure of a persons life should be measured by the impact they made while they were here. Anybody who knew James knows he really lived well over a hundred years by that measurement.
I became friends with James years ago and our love for music, dancing & beautiful women meant we would be friends to the end. Unfortunately that end came sooner then we would all have wanted.
My best memory of James was when i flew down to Florida to pick him up & drive him home from the Coast Gaurd. We rented jet ski's, layed on the beach, and drank way to much. I think James introduced me to every hip-hop dj on the east coast. At least Florida i think. We packed up all of his stuff and headed back. 24 Hours later, a straight shot mind you, we arrived in St. Louis. I will never forget the anticipation as we approched the Arch from 64 heading west. The anticipation was so high when it finally came over the horizon we both had tears in our eyes. He was so happy to be home, trust me James, we were much happier to have you home.
We will all miss you WAY TO MUCH. I do know that you are in an unbelievable place right now and heaven will never be the same again. You were an impact level 10. there will never be another.
I Love you James, and i promise i will always remember the good times because that is the way you would have wanted it

ROSS AND RACHEL:
Dear James, I know you could hear me when I came to your hospital room the night before you died when I told you how much I loved you and how much you have meant to me over the past 15 years. Baby, we had been through it all...you were always the one constant in my life. We were all sitting around last night telling stories about you, my favorite was the one where I ran away from home, stole my dad's change bucket and booked a 2-day bus trip to Florida just to see you for a day. James, your life touched mine in countless ways and I will never forget you. I am a better and stronger person because I knew you. You were one of my best friends for most of my life and I will be forever grateful for that. Remember sitting on your mom's porch and you asked me: "Baby, will ya luv me for the rest of my life?"...well the answer is the same..."Baby, I will be lovin' ya for the rest of mine". Heaven is a lucky place, singing and dancing with the angels. I will always remember THE PROMISE.
I love you James,
Kelly

James,In so many ways have you touched our souls,a handsome young man with a HUGE heart of gold!One never can tell the way that life will unfold,who could imagine you would be leaving us at only 28 yrs old?In many ways we all have been deeply blessed,yet you taken suddenly from us has been a difficult test.The heavens are lucky to have you JDS, we imagine you dancing on clouds and spinning house sets.So please go peacefully on to the gates,where I know in my heart –your Grandfather waits.I love you Kid-You'll always be my SuperMan!Until we dance again...~Mercedes
James, It has taken me a whole week to gather up the courage to look at this page. What can I say...You forever changed my life. You showed what true love was. The time we spent together here was some of the best times of my life. Every day I get to look at my beautiful Nelly dog and think of you. I remember all the laughs and cries we had together and how Tim convinced you that you shouldn't leave the first time you tried to move. You eventually did it anyways, but I will forever thank Tim for keeping you here with me just a little longer. I will never forget the love that we once shared and you will always remain in my heart. Your warm smile and cuter than ever dimples will be missed here in the sunshine state. I miss you kid and always will. Till we meet again baby.

Thanks for posting this website. I have been looking for any way I could find out funeral information. Thanks for the comments, too. May God comfort us all.I'm going to miss James.

I have recently heard the news of James Stulce. Our families grew up together at St.Paul's Parish. In fact, they lived up the street from us. Shelly and I were extremely close in grade school and played soccer together. My mom and Carol played on a housewives softball team together during the summers.During the summer, we all played together until it got dark outside. James and I were actually in a school play that his mom directed- he was a handy man...and it was a comedy sketch. We both kept forgetting our lines, and in his tool box he had a copy of the lines we both had to know and would feed me my lines when I forgot. I think we laughed the whole way through. My family just watched these home movies over the holidays. Thank you for creating a blog space in honor of James. The notes left to James, were beautiful. Thank you for posting the funeral arrangements. My deepest sympathy goes out to all of Jame's friends and family. My prayers will be with you all.
Sincerally, Angela DiMattia

Please accept my deepest condolonces. I graduated with James from Lindbergh and we remained friends after college. I was with Jami Rees at Barnes the day before James passed. I am very sorry for your loss and cannot imagine the loss you are feeling. I am so glad that I was able to know James and he will always be in my heart. Please know that God is taking care of him now and he is not suffering anymore. He was such a wonderful person and will forever be missed. Love and prayers,Christy Lieber

One can see by the postings, by the pictures, that James was loved not only by his family, but by hia friends as well. Our family also lost our beautiful son, Mark DeWalle, to sarcoma in June. Although he was a Mehlville Panther...I am sure he has hooked up with this beloved Lindbergh Flyer. Godspeed to them both.

I'm keeping James and his family in my prayers. I'm a new teacher at Carol's school, and I just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking about all of you.
I found your site through a friend of mine's site. My prayers and God's strength comfort you in your time of loss.
James...what can I say??? You touched me in a way that no one else has and made me realize what true love really is. Each and every day I get to look at little Nelly and remember the day we got her at the pet store. What a trip...a simple trip to get a rat to feed that scary snake of yours and the next thing you know there's a Rotti in the back seat of our car. Oh the days...and Tim, when he came down to take you home and ended up not leaving! I love you James and I can't explain how much we will all miss your little dimples and smile that could light up a room.
Till me meet again...Jackie
WOW! I'd say Adam Welp's story sums up James to a tee! I don't recall ever meeting such an outgoing and "true" human being! I am glad and thankful to have had the opportunity to know James and w/ out a doubt will never forget how he was so sincere to every single person he met.I am also EXTREMELY proud and thankful of him for serving in the military! And I don't think I'll ever forget when James, Tim, Rob, Matt, etc when they used to do the "Men in Black" dance! YES, it was PRICELESS!Rest in peace family!!!
Love, Chris Stephens

although time separates people, it cannot diminish the bonds they share. everytime i think of james, i always remember him walking up to me at freshman soccer tryouts. i was new to the school, had no friends, and on top of it, had the worst case of poison ivy. that didn't matter to james. he started talking to me and by the end of practice, invited me to his house to go swimming. by the end of the day, i had found a true friend. james, there are so many that you touched along your short journey. we are all so fortunate to have had the chance to meet you. although our lives took different paths, i will always be proud to have called you a friend.

We feel the sadness of losing someone so deeply because of the wonder joy that person - James - brought to us while he was here with us. We will never be the same because James touched all of us in different ways - and we will all be better people for that reason.

“Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.”James, you could light up a room with your smile, and your smile was contagious to all of us. We will miss you.

James,Bryan would always speak of you and what a great guy you were in Lindbergh soccer. You were great to your friends and your Country. Rest in peace and may your family now that you had many friend and touched many people from reading this blog site. I spoke with you on only a few occasions. but they were fine conversations.Dan Sullivan
