Jimmy loved his children, helping others always helping when his neighbors called, motorcycles, skiing, hunting trips to Colorado, Nascar, Simba and family. His kind heart is what drew us to love him so very much.

Special thanks to Curtis, Miriah, Makala and Austin Springs for their immediate care of James. His legacy lives on through Amanda and Nicholas with his attention to detail and extraordinary restoration projects.
