Jim was a member of the American Legion Post 111, the Maytag bowling league, and the Izaak Walton League. He liked to fish, garden, and watch birds and squirrels. He also loved spending time with his family during family trips or get togethers, including going to the Lake of the Ozarks and fishing in Canada.
