James retired from his position at Towson University in 2007. His professional career included remarkable work in carpentry and maintenance. He had a passion for life and his family. He loved the outdoors, camping, boating, crabbing, crafting, and flowers, especially roses. Whether it was camping with his friends, working side by side with his son, or crafting with his daughter, his commitment to his wife and family was unsurpassed. He owned horses, dogs, cats, and various farm animals at some point during his adult life. While he was an accomplished horseman, he actually trained and showed dogs for several years. Everyone who knew him recognized that he was a true animal lover.
