Legacy
A hard working man, James thought that honesty was the most important trait to have and he let you know that.   He was a great judge of character and if James loved you, you knew and had a friend for life.  Devoted to his family, James cherished time spent with his loved ones, including his pets.  He was an avid Philadelphia sports fan and family and friends would often find James yelling at the Eagles or Phillies over stumbled plays.  In his spare time, James enjoyed reading, playing golf and tending to his yard.   

Born in Camden, NJ, James was a resident of Turnersville for over 40 years.  Prior to retiring in 2016, he was a computer engineer for NCR Comten in Fort Washington, PA.
