He was involved in the scouting program and loved the adventure of the camp outs.
He loved art, music, and poetry. He wrote many beautiful poems as a way to express himself. He was a very compassionate, loving soul. James took pride in being able to complete a half marathon and later the Top of Utah full Marathon in 2012. He was a hard worker in whatever he put his mind to, and was currently working at Cytiva. Over the years James has made many supportive friends who were cheering him on. He was loved and adored by many.
James found solace in hiking, skiing, camping and being in the mountains. A favorite vacation for him was to go to Yellowstone and spend time with his family there. Warm days in St. George and California also brought him happiness.
