James was born January 11th, 1981 and graduated high school in 1999. Shortly after high school, he completed his certification in telecommunications and began work all over the country. He left telecommunications and went into construction. James started as an iron worker but found his calling as a rigger. This was the job he loved the most. He made so many friends all over and will be remembered far and wide.

James is survived by his mother, Kathy O'Bryan; daughters, Emily and Ciera; several siblings, Tiffany, Micheal, Charla, Chris, Jessica, Stephanie and Sean; as well as so many others whose lives he has touched.
