Dear friends, 

     My brother Lance has entered the Kingdom and is walking on the streets of gold with all our loved ones who were there to greet him on his journey.  He has been released from his pain and restraints caused by his medical emergency back in March.  I have been with him at his bedside the last 3 days and let him know how much he was loved by me, our family and so many others.  Thank you all for caring and loving him whether you're from hometown Pampa or one of the many people he met along the way in Amarillo and Colorado that became like part of the family.

     James Lance French was born April 30, 1953 in Pampa, TX to Robert "Bob" Eldridge and Frances Florine (Tarrant) French.  He passed on August 15, 2024 in Pueblo, CO.    He attended Stephen F. Austin Elementary, Robert E. Lee Jr. High, and graduated from Pampa High in 1972.  He is survived by his sister Lainie Howard and many nieces, nephews and friends.  He was preceded in death by his parents, 2 brothers: Lloyd Keith French and Robert Lee French, and brother-in-law Wade Howard.
