Jim was referred to around The Colony as MacGyver, a walking encyclopedia; that person who could build a rocket ship from a paper clip and a toothpick.   He was the go to person for many young men and women here in The Colony and surrounding areas for vehicle repairs, sound systems and general life advice. Many looked up to him like a father.   He was a wealth of knowledge gone to soon. He lived life to the fullest and always with a smile. Jim had a huge heart who passionately loved his wife, Step Children, nieces, nephews, and so many more. Jim touched many lives and hearts and will be loved and missed by all who knew him.
