 James loved God, his family and friends. He was funny, kind and outgoing. He made friends wherever he went and had a contagious laugh. He loved cowboy clothes, boots and hats, dancing, listening to music, bowling, puzzles and giving hugs. Jimmy always spoke what was on his mind, sometimes loudly. He was stubborn and ornery two fine qualities he shares with various family members. He was not defined by his disability and was proud of winning numerous Special Olympics medals.
