Jim was born and raised in Houston, Texas. He attended

Sharpstown High School and resided in Houston until 3 years ago when he and his best friend, Ursula, moved to Florida. Florida was filled with happy times, enjoying the water and their passion for fishing. Jim had a love for playing music. He and his brother put together many bands over the years and enjoyed singing, writing music, playing the guitar, and playing the drums. Jim was the highlight of family get togethers for his nieces and nephews. Uncle Jim was definitely the fun uncle that could always put a smile on the kids’ faces.

If you would want to do something in his honor then “pay it forward”. Help someone in need, Jim would really like that. A celebration of life will be scheduled later.
