After an Honorable Discharge from the Army, Jim and Lynn moved to Bellingham, WA where he returned to college attending Western Washington State College (now Western Washington University). He graduated with a B.A. in Business Administration. He gained employment with Crown Zellerbach in his home town of Port Townsend, where he spent many years. He was eventually transferred to Beaverton, OR and later to Crown Zellerbach’s corporate office in San Francisco, CA.

Jim is best remembered for his love of family, sports, cooking and the outdoors. He eagerly encouraged and supported his children throughout their years of school, attending sporting events, concerts and the many programs associated with student life. Jim was very proud of his children and later on, his grandchildren. He was known for his terrific sense of humor and sported an infectious laugh. He was a wonderful ’big brother’ to his siblings.
