Jim married Marlene Barnes and from this union they had three daughters; Jolene (Jodie) Bonney (Randy), Michelle Dee (Scott) and Pamela Clark (Joe Flores). They were later divorced.

He then worked for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) as a Database IT specialist. In all, he had a career with the Federal Government for 46 years. In addition to working for Inkley's Photo and Davis County Schools.
Jim was a kind and giving person. He enjoyed fishing, camping, traveling and cookouts with his family. Jim was a character with a great sense of humor. He was quick witted and loved to joke around. Jim will be remembered by many for his fun text messages and quirky emails. We will all miss his gifts wrapped in newspaper comics and crazy soda cocktails with a stick of celery.
Jim was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and has a strong testimony of the Gospel.
Jim is survived by his wife, Colleen; his children; Jolene (Jodie) (Randy) Bonney, Michelle (Scott) Dee, Pamela Clark (Joe Flores); his stepchildren; Trent Holcomb, Heather (Jason) Bremer, and Tyler (T.J.)
