Together they raised their family while enjoying their lives to the fullest, often exploring Norris Lake, traveling, camping and four wheeling. James also spent time woodworking and building various things to make people’s lives easier and more enjoyable. Caring and a hard worker, he was always ready to lend his knowledge and a helping hand to anyone who needed it.
