James was born May 10, 1990 in Graham to Melissa Isbell and Craig Cox.  He graduated from Graham High School and worked for Borderline Operating.  Keegen was his world and loved him with everything in him.  James loved his beer, old music, loved working on things, but if it was running good it wasn’t running good enough like blowing up the golf cart.  Everything was in mint condition to him.  James loved to do things he knew he wasn’t supposed to for the thrill and knowing he could get by with it.  He loved riding his four wheeler and motorcycle with Keegen, going fishing, and back roading.  He had many struggles in his life, but his heart was golden and if he loved you, he loved you hard.
