Edward and Margaret Ann (Gerhard) Schadler in Saint Joseph, Michigan. Jim was a graduate of Saint Joseph High School Class of '85 and went on to receive his associate degree from Lansing Community College. He was a lifetime member of the Elks.

Jim worked as a self-employed home builder. Due to his outstanding work ethic, he prided himself on his quality and craftsmanship. He was an excellent landscaper, as evidenced by the complete landscaping packages all his builds included, as well as his own private property. Jim was a kind individual. Throughout his years in business, neighbors and community members would quickly come to know him as a friend and someone they sought out for advice and assistance because of his willingness to help everyone. Jim served his God and God's people by maintaining his place of worship as if it were his own. Jim enjoyed the outdoors. He had a major love of golf from an early age when he golfed with his father. He participated in more than one league per week. His love of the outdoors was shown through his enjoyment of the lake and camping with his wife, Ann. He was a great cook and grill master, doing the majority of the cooking in the household. He had a great, subtle sense of humor--making his wife Ann laugh daily. Jim was loved and admired by many and will be missed dearly by all who remember him. Services for Jim are pending at this time.
