He started his career in sales management including Exxon Chemical plastic film and BF Goodrich vinyl products. In 1977 he moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin and was president of Milprint and Koch Label, both companies owned by Philip Morris Industrial. He moved to Madison in 1983 as president of Springs Window Fashions in Middleton, where he worked for 11 years.

Jim and Nancy loved to travel in the States to both Coasts and to visit family members and friends. They took yearly trips to the Florida Gulf Coast during the winter months which they very much looked forward to. Jim and Nancy also enjoyed games and had many happy hours playing cards with friends and family whether it was Bridge or Euchre.
