James Nesbitt

October 16, 1949 — November 9, 2024

James L. Nesbitt, age 75, cherished husband of Carol, nee Ruebe. Loving father of Jenifer Nesbitt. Dear brother of the late William Nesbitt and the late Thomas Nesbitt.

Jim was very active. He enjoyed swimming, scuba diving, bike riding, camping and bird watching. He was a talented handyman and mechanic who could repair anything. He enjoyed watching movies--especially westerns--and listening to Christian music along with some country, 80's rock and oldies. In addition to listening to music, Jim loved to sing wherever he was, whether in the car or walking down the street. Some of his favorite times were days spent in the company of his friends and family.
