He is also survived by his 16 grandchildren, 27 great-grandchildren, 8 great-great- grandchildren, sisters, Elizabeth Clemons and Charleen Brunner (Brian), who will remember him fondly.

In addition to his family, Jim was an active member of The Church at Liberty Square, where he found fellowship and purpose within his community. His passions included traveling, solving puzzles, and spending time with loved ones, creating memories that will be cherished forever.
