He was preceded in death by his parents and brother, Dick.

Jim was a barber in Pine River for 43 years and owned Jim’s Barber Shop. He had been known for saying he had never worked a day in his life because he loved his job and his customers. Jim loved catching up with his customers and getting to know them and their families.

Jim loved to fish and always made time to throw a bobber in the lake with his wife Judy, his kids, grandkids, nieces, and nephews. Many weekends he enjoyed sitting around the bonfire with friends and family sharing stories or a new joke he had just heard.

Jim served in the U.S. Army from 1966-1969 where he worked on electronics and radars.
