Jim was born on March 11, 1925 in Manning, Iowa, to John and Gertrude Ansorge, and served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. He graduated from Valparaiso University in 1948 and married the love of his life - Iona Bohn of Fort Wayne, Indiana - in 1949. They celebrated their 61st wedding anniversary on September 13, 2010. Survivors include his wife Iona, son Rick (Sarah) and granddaughters Rebecca and Kirsten of Hoover, Alabama, and daughter Shelley (Mark) of Minneapolis, Minnesota. He was preceded in death by three brothers - Art, Karl, and Max - and one sister, Luella. Jim was a dedicated employee of Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc., in Des Moines, Iowa, where he worked for 47 years before retiring in 1995 as Director of Investor Relations. Jim and Iona moved to Colorado Springs in 1996 and joined First Lutheran Church in 1997. Jim enjoyed singing in the church choir, playing golf, and gazing at the mountains from his deck. Beloved for his sense of humor, he brightened the lives of all around him with his warm smile, quick wit, and funny jokes. He will be greatly missed by his friends, family, and the granddaughters who affectionately knew him as "Grampsie." A Celebration of Life will be held at 1:00 p.m. Saturday, October 30 at First Lutheran Church, 1515 North Cascade Avenue.
