After high school James got a job with the Department of Highways where he worked his way up to being a compliance officer.

He spent an amazing 35 years with the Cadet unit.
In his spare time James enjoyed spending time in Arizona for the winters, driving his scooter around town and being a part of the Chicken Chef coffee crew. James spent his last days surrounded by family and friends.
