James was born to August Rudolph Motloch Sr. and Annie Frances Vrana Motloch on June 21, 1952. James graduated from Reagan High School in 1972. Known to many as Jamie or String Bean, he lived life to the fullest, never meeting a stranger and always full of jokes. His love for animals and horses led him to ranching in Utah and horse training in New Mexico and Arizona. He returned to Austin in 1976, met Dora Jo (Jo Jo) Goppert Fillenworth in September 1994, and they married on September 22, 2001. James was a loving husband, father and grandfather. James was a heavy equipment operator and built numerous roads and building pads in and around the Austin area, and for the past three and a half years he worked the oilfields of west Texas and lived in Odessa. James kept with his tradition of meeting people and making new friends, enjoying good times, joke telling, barbeques, and Lone Star. His traditions will remain in our memories forever.
