Bio
Jim had a unique purpose on Earth and that was to teach and to lift people up and he was one of the most positive people you would ever meet, even after the life he lived was hard. He always gave good advice and encouraged others to be strong and true to life. He always put his faith first. He loved his family and two children. He had an on-going problem with his heart and had surgery but unexpectedly, he died in Texas, before moving back to New Mexico. He was always the voice of reason and the one who would tell you to get up and to work hard and keep going on the path you were supposed to. We feel this loss, as he was sometimes our compass.
