James proudly and honorably served in the United States Air Force. He was a police officer with the Bridgeton Police Department until his retirement in 2011. James married the love of his life, Brenda, on August 28, 1971, and together they shared 50 beautiful years. They traveled often and enjoyed time spent with family. His grandchildren were the apple of his eye and so very important to him. James was a very generous and supportive person; his love was felt by those he cared for most dearly and truly. He never judged a soul and held compassion for everyone he met. James was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
