James retired from UPS Supply Chain Solutions in E-Town after 20 + years of dedicated service. He enjoyed farming and tinkering with his trucks. His real fun was riding his motorcycles and ATVs - going mudding and trail riding.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his first wife, Patty Shuffitt Ayers; his second wife, Sharron Stratton Ayers; and brothers, Michael Ayers and Johnie Gauffey.
Left to cherish his memory is his son, Zachary Wayne Ayers; stepdaughter, Aly dePierro (Matt); grandson, Matthew Monsam; sisters, Anita Dewitt, Carolyn Warburton; many cousins and extended family; his UPS family; and his two best friends, Tony Basham and John Hands.
A Celebration of James' Life is at the Boston Community Center, 61 Lebanon Junction Rd, Boston, KY 40107 on Sunday, November 22, 2026 from 2pm until 5pm.
Arrangements are under the direction of Advantage Funeral Home - Hardy Chapel, "Where Personal And Sincere Service Is Tradition."
