Jim had been bravely battling pulmonary fibrosis for many years. He fought a good fight and always with that famous sense of humor. His spirits were kept high by the loves of his life- his family. He was a wonderful husband, a loving father of two daughters, and the best Pop Pop to his four grandchildren. Jim excelled at his profession- network security engineering, he served as a United States Marine, he was an excellent joke-teller, and his absolute love of music and playing guitar was extraordinary.
Jim is survived by his love, Kandace; his daughter Katie and her husband, Aaron Janes; his daughter Courtney and her husband, Chad Parker; and his 4 grandchildren- Molly, Julie, Allison, and Pierce. He is also survived by his older brothers, Michael and Ralph.
Jim has made an impact on countless lives and will be missed beyond measure.
