James was a proud employee of Domino Sugar for 30+ years, active in the VFW, and a natural comedian who loved to make people laugh. He loved to play the lottery, drink his beer, especially Natty Bo, and he loved his sweets with a special liking for Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. James was an avid walker, and walked to visit local bars, his two of choice being Southside and the VFW. In the last year of his life he loved to shop at Roses and kept himself busy with house and yard maintenance. Above all, James loved his family and his dogs and he will be deeply missed by them all.
