He loved classic cars, motorcycles and dirt bikes. He grew up around motorcycles, so they became a staple in his life. He loved to ride, even when he was sometimes caught in the rain. He always had a huge smile when he was on his bike. Jim also loved animals, but was definitely a cat person although he enjoyed babysitting Arianna’s ferret. As a family, he loved to listen to and read daily devotions from our All God’s Creatures book where people shared stories of how God‘s gift of pets, comforted and protect them. It was a meaningful devotional time. He loved as we all shared what the daily devotion meant to us. Jim also was patriotic. He loved our country. He was a proud American. He loved to talk to everyone and make new friends and always would lend a hand to someone in need. Always.

For 25 years, he worked in Injection Molding until he was diagnosed with MS and took a job that was pretty much made for him which was selling motorcycle parts at Dennis Kirk.
