i want to make a testimonies how good mr. james kermit basham..he was a good friend, i met him in our office at NSO region 3. i was shocked with the news i've heard that he was shot and killed..late last year i've experienced continous bleeding and my OB said i need to go to the hospital and prepare 20-25thousand pesos for the minor operation to stop the bleeding.. during that time i was in a period of financial problem..he visited me at work with his wife sister jane basham, i told them my situation, without having a second thought, he told me that he is willing to help me financially so that i can go to the hospital for the minor operaton..he is really a very good person with heart to ordinary people who needs help..i cried when his wife called me telling me that he passed away...let us all pray for the soul of a very good man mr james kermit basham..wherever he is, i will always be thankful with the second life he gave me...God Bless HIM.
