James Edward Shuler

James was a son, a brother, a father, grandfather a friend, an athlete, a leader, a manager, and a husband. For in each place that he held he earned a special place in our hearts.

There are countless stories from his life that was well lived and those that loved him most and knew him best will be left to cherish those memories.

He could take a moment of time and transform it and make it miraculous.

He was the man who took on the tough jobs and made everyone feel needed.

He mentored and shaped lives by making people feel important and wanted.

He was the man who could listen to the unspoken problem and develop an amazing solution.

He had the unique ability to take what was broken and make it whole again.

His friendship was earned and his loyalty was a reward for that friendship.

His family was the most important thing to him and his most valuable possession was the love that he shared with each of those that loved him back.

His favorite moments are reflected in the times of the day where the sunlight reflects off the water or when the stars twinkle in the moonlight.

Simple moments were the best because he could make those moments exceptional just from his laugh or the smile in his eyes

We celebrate him not on his date of birth or the date of his passing but we celebrate the time which is symbolized by the DASH which was his life.

That dash touched so many and we will forever cherish our time with him.

He is survived by his wife Cynthia; daughters, Tori and Megan; sons, Shelby, Colton and Aaron; his grandchildren, Callie, Caroline, Logan and Jorden; his many sisters, Terri, Vickie, Betty, Frankie and Linda; and his brother Richard.
