Jim's Story
After graduating from college, I began working for Stouffer's Food Corporation. I spent a summer working in Solon, Ohio working in the management training program. Two weeks after getting married, the company moved us to Salt Lake City, where we lived for seven years, and had two boys. The company then moved us to the Bay Area in Northern Califronia, where we lived in Antioch for 10 years. I became involved in community activities, and reactivated my membership in the Boy Scouts, eventually taking over a Cub Scout Pack, Boy Scout Troop, and even running the district as District Commissioner. I changed companies and worked with a number of old Stouffer's Foods friends, when we started the JB Williams Company. We bought the rights to Aqua Velva, Brylcreem, Lectric Shave and Cepacol for $12 million, eventually selling off the company in 2002 for $86 million (man I wish I was a bigger stakeholder).

k to Southern California in 2001, settling in Lake Arrowhead, after numerous years of searching Washington, Oregon, and the foothills of the Sierras, for a mountain home. I got my real estate brokers license and started in real estate after the sale of the JB Williams company, so that I didn't have to travel as much. I am involved with Scouting, Parks & recreation, Wildlife rescue, and have started numerous clubs on the mountain involving food and wine. I sit on a number of advisory panels and am very involved in community activities. My wife works as a Veterinary Technician at the local animal hospital. My oldest son went to the Air Force Academy ,was a pilot, and is now in management at Traget., and my youngest son graduated from San Diego State, and is Middle School Science teacher in Santee, CA. If you come up to Lake Arrowhead, give me a call. We have an extra guest room, and love to have friends visit.
