Jim enjoyed watching sports, especially his beloved Cleveland Browns, golfing with his sons, losing quarters to St. John, target practice, telling stories, and making people laugh in his free time. He loved history and was an avid reader.
Jim is preceded in death by his parents, Maurice and Kathleen Howe (nee Neeley), his infant sister, and three grandchildren, Amber and Ariel Easton, and Matthew Howe.
Jim will be fondly remembered by his family and friends.
