Many people will tell you they want to die “with my boots on,” and Jimmy certainly did. He was driving his lawnmower when the gear lever broke backwards and he and the lawnmower crashed down the bank and down the hill. He was a loving, understanding, tenacious and compassionate man; A proud soldier and a lifelong “public citizen”. Often described as an “old advocate and orator,” James cited the Bible or Shakespeare, bringing historical perspective to many cases.

James expected to return to his unit and “go down Wilhelmstrasse” to Berlin, but he could no longer use his arm and was sent to New York on a transport ship.

There he learned that a large nerve had been severed and the extremities had died. He couldn`t use his “trigger finger.” Becca Kenna-Schenk, Director of Government and Academic Relations, Western Washington University After Pearl Harbor, Jimmy was eager to serve his country. He sat on the editorial board and took this task very seriously. In December 1942, he joined the army and was sent to the officers` school, but he fell into a ditch and broke his healing. He was declared unfit for service, demoted to private rank, and sent to a unit where the men awaited their release. They expected to be treated quickly, but that did not happen. They waited and waited, watched the war and waited for the Allied invasion. When the invasion of Normandy finally took place, many, if not most, of the young officers he trained with were killed on the beaches or in the fighting that immediately followed.

Jimmy was in first grade, attending the new Bainbridge Island High School every four years, graduating in 1928. He was part of the debate and track teams and was a Yell leader. He was also credited with suggesting the “Spartans” as the school`s mascots. According to classmate Haydon Callahan, the new school was stuck in a vote for mascots.

Republican” in Kitsap County and was very popular. Although the area is a “lunch bucket” area, thousands of people were “crossing the aisle” and voting for Jimmy.

He devoted considerable time to civic functions and duties. He was a founding member of the Kitsap County Historical Society (life member) and has long been active in local veterans` organizations.
