He proudly served in the United States Navy for over 25 years as both a fleet aviator and a test pilot. During his service he flew over 60 aircraft, including the A-6 and F-14. Highly accomplished Jim earned many decorations during his service. Jim was a modest man but according to his daughters he was the greatest pilot they ever saw. Upon retirement, he began his second career at Booz, Allen, and Hamilton.

Jim was humble, sharp witted, and loving. He was a wonderful father, not just to his daughters but to many of their friends. He had a commanding presence and was loved by his colleagues and the men and women who served under him. Jim was unafraid to think outside the box and had no qualms with stating exactly what he thought, to the chagrin of some but the delight of most. Meetings with Jim set records for speed and candor. Together Jim and his beloved wife Betty celebrated over 34 wonderful years of marriage, if you asked Jim, he often said it felt like 99. Jim and Betty made codependency fashionable. He and his wife enjoyed building wooden boats together including a 21' triple seat kayak and an 18.5' sailboat. He was currently building Betty an open top kayak that he planned to paint her favorite color, yellow. When he wasn't playing with wood in the garage he could be found riding his beloved bicycle throughout the streets of southern Maryland in flashy spandex. Favorite quotes were "Suck it up", "Shake it Off", "Just Peachy", "Get to the Point", "Yes, Dear", "Uh huh" (with glazed eyes), and "I am um". In addition to his family, great loves included bicycling, weight lifting, sailing, SUPing, kayaking, Taco "Tursday", hot sauce, bacon, ceaselessly nagging Betty for a gyrocopter/airplane/sailboat, competing with his daughter for the best bicycle, and, especially, harassing/embarrassing his daughters. He greatly admired General "Maddog" Mattis and Ron Swanson.
