Jim attended a country grade school and later graduated from the Chester High School. Upon finishing High School in 1943, he immediately enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served on the U.S.S. Savo Island in the Pacific Theater, working as a radio tech. After receiving his honorable discharge from the Navy in March of 1946, he returned to Thayer county, where he worked as a lineman for the Thayer County Telephone Company. On Oct. 17, 1946, he married Donna Lea Corliss and to this union three children were born. Jim later went to work as a journeyman for Norris Public Power. In 1962, after apprenticing with Gene Elder, Jim went to work for Edith Elder Company in Geneva as a watchmaker and salesman. He truly loved his new career, and it became a passion. Often you could fin Jim working late into the evenings. He soon became active in the Geneva Chamber of Commerce, Lion’s club, serving as president. He was a member of Geneva Masonic Lodge and Rotary Club. Jim was a people person who dearly loved interacting with his friends. If he didn’t know you, he would make it a point to introduce himself and strike up a lively conversation. He enjoyed a good story, liked to kid and be kidded, and his quick wit endeared him to all he would meet. He loved nothing more than taking long drives with his friends on the rural roads around Geneva. Good banter and time at the coffee shop each day were always something he looked forward to. Throughout his life Jim always stayed busy. He enjoyed golf, fishing, boating, and took many vacations to various parts of the U.S.A. and Canada. Seldom was it that you ever saw Jim without a smile on his face and a vocal greeting. He will be truly missed by his family and those he called friend. He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Stella and by his sister, Maxine and her husband, Bill. He is survived by his lifelong friend Donna Lea Brumbaugh; children, Linda Nunns and husband, Bob, Brenda Becker and husband Michael, and Terry Brumbaugh; by grandchildren, Al Gibbs and wife, Angela, Robby Nunns; Jessica, Annie and Eric Becker; and a great-grandson, Ashton Gibbs.
