Jim was born on March 31st, 1937 in Hobart, Oklahoma. He graduated from Warner High School in 1955 and attended Bethany Nazarene College. Jim joined the United States Army in September of 1956 and served our country with the 588th Engineers Division. In June of 1957 he married Sherrill. They were married for 61 years.
Jim was an expert automotive technician and teacher. With Sherill by his side, they had many memorable adventures. Life has been full of vacations, lake trips with family and friends, hobbies, hard work, and serving the Church. Jim was a gifted story teller, selfless and committed family man, and treated everyone with respect. He is known for his infectious smile, and his ability to repair anything. Although we will miss him greatly, we celebrate his homecoming with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
