James A. Binford passed away on Monday, July 4, 2011 at the age 81, with his 
neighbor and friend Marie Weaver at his bedside in Franklinton, LA.

Mr. Binford was predeceased by his wife Kim Nguyen, and remained widower until 
his death. His loving mother Gladys Penton also predeceased him. He made his 
home in rural Franklinton, LA for the past 15 years. Mr. Binford, as he was 
known, had a very big heart and loved little children. He was an expert at 
training Thoroughbreds. He showed horses in his young years and up until just 
recently continued to help his friend Floyd with shoeing. He was also a boat 
pilot at one time of his life, but his biggest love was for the tracks.

Friends of Mr. Binford are invited to attend a small Christian service 
celebrating his life, led by the Bogue Falaya Baptist Church Minister, Dr. Jake 
Roudkovski in the home of Marie Weaver, located at 40026 Turkey Road, 
Franklinton, LA at 11:00 AM on Saturday, the 9th day of July, 2011.

There will be no viewing as he has requested cremation.
