Papa Jim worked for the Star Telegram, where he made many friends across North Texas selling newspaper subscriptions. He loved to tell stories – sometimes over and over – and he never met a stranger. Jim was a staple at the local Whataburger every morning, where he could be found exchanging tales with his friends over coffee. He also loved baseball and was always keeping up with the Rangers, hoping desperately they would make it to the World Series again. Jim died strong in his Christian faith; his grandchildren found his worn bible next to his bed. Papa Jim has now happily reunited with Theda and David.
