Jim was a man with a big heart and loved all of his family and friends. He enjoyed life and enjoyed every second hanging out and telling stories.

Jim is survived by his mother, Naomi; his loving and supportive wife, Jean Burkacki; his four sons, Douglas Ray, John Dallas, Nick Dewayne and Eugene Anthony; his two daughters, Michelle and Margo; His Brothers, Jerome, Johnny, Don, Chaz, Ken, Gary, Rick; His sisters, Kathy, Susan, Reiko, Sharon, Mary, Linda, and Lisa; His seven grandsons, Lee, Adam, Tyler, Chandler, Anthony, Brandon and Dane; his five granddaughters, Kasi, Shelby, Ausha, Amber, and Clara; his great grandsons, Tyson, Hayden, Tatum, Silas, Derril, Jay, Ryan and Atticus; his great-granddaughters, Madison, Jordan, Mayleigh, Jaidan, and Gracelynn.
