He worked many years in the aeronautic industry and missile research. Eventually, he created his own successful engineering research company.
James loved music and joined his wife Marian singing in several choirs over the years.
He accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior on May 17, 1972 and served many years in the Foursquare Church of Grants Pass, Oregon as an Elder and taught Adult Bible study classes for over 10 years.
Because James survived 3 battles against cancer over the years, we believe, in lieu of flowers, memorials should be made to cancer societies or cancer research organizations of your choice.
He is survived by his Wife of 72 years and a large family of 3 children, 10 Grandchildren and 18 Great Grandchildren. He is currently visiting with his youngest daughter Patty Ann in Heaven.
There will be a small private family memorial service in Kent, WA. He will be missed.
