James Patrick “Jim” Kunzer

Jim is the youngest born to George and Helen Kunzer. He attended grade school and high school in Woodstock and McHenry Illinois. Jim earned his apprenticeship as a Journeyman and Master Plumber.

Jim was a friend of Bill W for over 30 years and was serious in his help and mentoring of those who were also friends of Bill W.

Jim and his wife Mary retired to a small farm with a workshop in Northern Wisconsin in 2010, she to enjoy nature, and he to pursue his mechanical skills with motorcycles and small engines. Jim enjoyed riding his cycles on quiet country roads and tinkering in his shop. He was doing what he enjoyed most when our Lord called him from his workshop. Jimmy was surrounded by his loving wife and all his children as he later passed into Heaven.
