He also enjoyed shooting his Kimber 22-250 (a.k.a. his baby) He had a special piece of his heart that loved spending time with his grandkids and playing on the Wii. Jim was known to go out on his escapades of treasure hunting and not to mention his Christmas tree hunting.

Patricia Hogberg says
I’ve known Jimmy since he was in 2nd grade in Huntsville, Alabama as the Hogberg and Fisher families spent lots of time together. Trapper and Jimmy were best friends when they were young. After Jimmy graduated high school and moved to Boulder, we were thrilled. Jimmy lived with my husband, Dick Wiebe, for a short time and we have always had a soft spot in our hearts for him. I am so very sorry that he left us so soon but now he’s reunited with his dad, Jim, in heaven.
I love you, Jimmy and will I never forget you!
