Jim is survived by his wife Bobbi and three children, Tom (Jen), Karrie (Ryan) and Ben (Lisa). Jim had many passions in life, his family, his work, sports and travel, and managed to find time to fit it all in. Jim coached his children's little league and soccer teams, was a Scout Leader, and contributed to the community through his work as a Shriner and Mason. He also donated thousands of blinds to various charity groups in the Tucson Community. Jim was a great friend and was always the go-to guy to help with whatever was needed. Jim was proud to receive the award of Industry Foundation Merit Award from the ASID for his work in the Old Pueblo. Jim and Bobbi were a fixture at many of U of A sporting events and loved traveling to Las Vegas and many other destinations with a beach.
