He was born in Parker, Pennsylvania, to Glenn and Glenna Foust. Jim enlisted in the U.S. Navy and proudly served his country in World War II. After that he settled in California where in 1973 he met the love of his life, Gisela. They married in 1977 raising two children and working their respective professions. After retiring, they moved to Prescott, Ariz. In Prescott, Jim helped Gisela take care of her elderly parents at their home.

Jim died the same way he lived, with courage and concerned about his family to the last moments.
