He was born February 6, 1952 in Bluefield, West Virginia to James K. Stanley and Evelyn E. Hubbard.
Jim enjoyed many things, such as bowling, billiards and trains. He was a true Bears and Cubs fan and, for fun, would bet his friend and neighbor, Bill, a quarter a game. He was a Beatles fan and even gave his vocals a shot playing Beatles Rock Band here he found he wasn’t as good as he’d hoped. He enjoyed riding his bicycle with his granddaughter. Scrabble and Monopoly were favorites with him. Playing many games with his daughter and friends and always winning. You could always find Jim playing cards with his friend and neighbor, Anthony on Friday nights. Jim never met a stranger and would strike up a conversation with anyone. He was a 1970 graduate of Gerstmeyer High School and served as an MP in the Army from 1974-1977.
