On May 14, 1977, in Holy Cross Church, he married Fannie "Amy" Mursten who survives, along with one sister, Mary E. (Michael) Ryan of South Bend; two brothers, R.

Jim had a passion for gardening, cooking and especially Notre Dame Sports. He loved to feed family and friends and could make every gathering a festive feast. Jim and Amy had a great love for family, friends, neighbors and Notre Dame. We are grateful and appreciative for all those who
supported our family during Jims illness. Your visits, phone calls and meals helped keep us going. Jim kept a positive attitude and sense of humor during this time. He was looking forward to ND's football season and making plans for tailgating and road trips when God called him home.
