Born August 8, 1947 in Detroit, Michigan, he was the son of the late James Kennedy and Goldie Kosis McCutcheon.
While spending most of his life residing in Wildwood, Florida, Jim was a member of the First United Methodist Church of Wildwood. He was president of the football booster club and a member of the Kiwanis Club. He was a proud Little League coach for all of his children. Jim enjoyed golfing, riding motorcycles, boating, traveling, shooting skeet and sporting clays, but most of all loved spending time with his children and grandchildren. Jim was a Florida State Seminole and a Georgia Bulldog fan.
Jim was a custom homebuilder for his entire career. After retiring seven years ago, he and his family moved to The Georgia Club in Statham, Georgia to be closer to his children and grandchildren and became a member of Bethlehem First United Methodist Church. In September 2017, he was the recipient of a single lung transplant at Duke University Hospital.
Survivors include his wife, Pamela O’Dell McCutcheon; his four children, Todd McCutcheon (Julie), Darren McCutcheon (Liz), Kelly Argo (James), and Megan McCutcheon; one brother, John McCutcheon (Patsy); seven grandchildren, Sydney and Macey McCutcheon, Hayden, Madelyn, and James McCutcheon, and Addie and Hadyn Argo.
