Jim was a kind, loving, and jolly man who was very giving and willing to put others first. He worked for many local businesses as a mechanist and was involved in the VFW and American Legion Riders. Jim had a big heart and gave his time to many local charities/charity rides.

Jim could light up a room with his smile and was always a positive presence. He loved a good joke and had a hearty laugh. He enjoyed playing golf and cheering on his favorite team, Notre Dame. Family meant everything to Jim, especially his grandbabies. He will be greatly missed by his loving family, many friends, and all those in his community.
