His siblings are Randee (John) Giles, Kristine (Gawin) Horrocks, Marian (deceased), Kenneth (Laura) Turner, Martha (Sam) Miles, Scott (Toni) Turner, Sean (Tera) Turner, Phillip (Teresa) Turner and Autumn (Jason) Vigil. Jim graduated from Tooele High School in 1974. He married his sweetheart, Leslie Ivory, on Aug. 8, 1975, in the Salt Lake LDS Temple.

They have six beautiful grandchildren: Jimmy, Graci, and Madyson Fox, Earl Schmidt, Aivini Stucki and Roselyn Turner. He will truly be missed by his family.
