James was a hard-working, generous-to-a-fault man. He loved spending time in his garden, bird watching, and when his sons were younger, coaching his boys in the various sports they played. James was the absolute epitome of the person who would do anything for anyone and as an auto parts aficionado he was the go-to guy if you were looking for the elusive part.
