Jim grew up in Holliston, MA and later moved to the Lakes Region in New Hampshire. He worked in the car industry for most of his life. Jim’s bright red Triumph TR4A was his pride and joy.

He rode a motorcycle and owned a small motorboat, which he referred to as a “hole in the water into which you pour money”. He loved watching baseball, eating lobster, feeding the birds in his backyard, and raising Irish Setters.
