Soon after marriage they established their home in West Roseville and their church family, always an important part of their life together, with Bridgeway Christian Church.
Jim had a passion for the outdoors from an early age with his involvement in Boy Scouts, attaining the rank of Eagle Scout as well as being involved in the Tribe of Tahquitz where he served for a time as Chief. He loved hiking, fly fishing, bike riding, kayaking, golfing, shooting, history and working with his hands. He was a very talented man and had a passion for people and never met a stranger. The things he held dearest, however, were those he loved and would do anything for. While we are confident Jim is now with his Creator for eternity he will truly be missed by those that were fortunate enough to share part of their life with him.
