Jim worked as an electrician at Chandler Electric for many years. He later went to work for Judd’s Inc. (Valley Press) as a technician. He loved to solve problems and fix things and was an early version of “MacGyver”. He was a loyal fan of the Baltimore Orioles and the Indianapolis Colts, and enjoyed fishing, hunting, and going to NASCAR races with his buddies. He loved animals, and in addition to many dogs, cats, and birds over the years, he fed and made friends with all the squirrels in the neighborhood, giving each one a name. He enjoyed music, playing guitar, and the harmonica.

Jim was a US Marine and a veteran of the Korean War. He was a life member of the Giles B Cook American Legion and a member of the Front Royal VFW.
