James was born on September 20, 1990, in Poplar Bluff to James and Brenda Smith.

James is survived by his mom Brenda Smith, a great niece Ashlyn Taylor, nieces Aschah, Sarah, Mariah, and Emma, sister Sarah Lamb, nephews Matthew and Michael, his closest best friend Donna Jo Clark, a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins.  
James is so loved and will be truly missed but remembered for his beautiful smile, handsome face, his joyful personality and his loving heart!
