Jim's Story
After Graduation from Lee Edwards in 1965, I entered the military for four years, where I learned electronics. After Vietnam I returned to Asheville and started college. I was a math major at UNC-Asheville. In college I met my wife of 16 years. I started a career in electrical, electronics and communications. We built a rustic home in Fairview where we lived, and I loved living in the country. After 6 years we had a son, Daniel; 3 years later another son, Matthew. I sold the electronics part of the business to spend more time with my kids who were 5 and 8, when I became a single parent. They both live and work in the Asheville area, and I am very proud of both of them. I got into real estate, and obtained some land and houses.

is wife Mandy and my two grandchildren Cate and Jill, who was born on Halloween 2008. We planted an orchard of 20 fruit trees there. I love spending weekends there. Matt has a motorcycle track on the farm. Today I enjoy traveling. I travel to Nicaragua, where my friends operate a development mission. I also go to Haiti, and to Europe, and Manhatten. I have a small older RV and I like music festivals and camping. I love to be in the woods. I am semi retired, I work 20 hours per week in the office, and I am remodeling houses. I live alone in Montford, and enjoy watching movies (comedies & documentaries) and going to plays. I like 60¿s music and Reggae music. I enjoy eating simple basic home cooked style food. I am a social & political liberal, and hope for world peace in my lifetime.
