Funeral service will be 2 p.m., Monday, November 29, at Hope Center Church with Pastor Warren Kiper officiating.

The son of Stephanie Neal was born January 7, 2005, in Tulsa. He attended Daniel Webster High School and this year was getting his schooling through Epic Schools. Lunch was his favorite time of the school day, but if he had to choose, Math was his favorite subject. He loved to spend time with his cousin, Robbi; and they were passionate about their nerf gun fights. They were so close that they fought all the time, but got over it quickly and were the best of friends. James also spent much of his free time playing video games and Yu-Gi-Oh!.

James was loving, caring, stubborn, and liked to voice his opinion as if he was grown.

He is preceded in death by his grandparents: Steven Neal, Frank White, John Gardner, Carol Gardner, and Betty Wellyard; Uncle Wayne Willyard; and cousin, Mikey Floyd.

Survivors include his mother, Stephanie Neal; twin sister, Jamie Neal; grandparents: Betty White and Carol Stretch; aunts and uncles: Candace and Rob Stretch, Chris Neal, and Carol and Darius Arney; cousins: Darius Arney, Jr., Sarah Stretch, Robert Stretch, Jr., and Christopher Stretch; and many more loving extended family members and friends.
