James or Ron as some of his family called him, was a Veteran of the U.S. Army, and avid motorcycle rider, a graduate of NSU in Tahlequah, OK with a a major in History/Education, a mechanic who could fix anything, but most of all a loving, caring person whose family meant the world to him and he meant the world to his family.
Beyond his worldly, gruff exterior was a man whose heart was always open to anyone in need of a hot meal and a place to stay. James was a caretaker-especially to his "young-uns". His kids or anybody's kids, were important to him to be a mentor, to listen, and to just be a friend. James had the ability to make them feel important and special.
James was dearly loved and will be missed by all who were fortunate to know him.
