He loved the TV show M.A.S.H., was a Trump FAN, a true republican and loved helping people. He was also a grease monkey who had a love for cars, his sparkle blue 1965 Chevelle was his joy and the Dodge Ram came later on. James had a love for cruising the oceans on a ship or taking a road trip, 6 national parks out West was the most recent. All of this he did love but nothing compared to the love he had for his family, especially his two grandchildren.
