When he was not working, he liked spending his time getting together with family, taking care of his birds, eating good food, going to the shooting range, jet skiing and also having an occasional cigar with his friends.
Jim lived life to the fullest with strength and grace that is unsurpassed. He was the epitome of honesty and integrity. His family and friends are grateful to have had the gift of knowing him and being a part of his life.
His presence was truly a blessing to us all. We thank Jim for the opportunity to experience the wonderful man that he was. His legacy will carry on forever in our hearts and in our minds.
