Jim served in the Air Force and was actively involved in VFW Post 1975. This VFW post was an important part of his life with many close friends and good times.

Jim’s career as a professional chef used his passion for food and good taste which brought him to Florida and Maryland with him settling in Auburn, NY.

He loved the companionship of his cats. He had a lifelong interest in photography, enjoyed bike riding, music and golf as well as walking.

Jim had a witty sense of humor that made us laugh and love him. We are thankful for the memories, love, friendship and times we shared with Jim and will treasure these in our hearts.
