You had to like Jim. He was always laid back and was completely non judgmental. To keep his cars running he became a “back yard” mechanic. It became a hobby and he instructed his sons on how to keep their cars on the road. One son purchased a motorcycle which took him back to his days of riding. He playfully bragged that his Honda 360 was one “bad ass” bike. Jim never said no to babysitting the grandkids. Regardless of their behavior Jim always claimed they were good and he never tired of Tom and Jerry, The Roadrunner and Sponge Bob cartoons.rnJim was married to the late Esther Williams and is father of: Christopher Ball (Jennifer), Bryan Ball (Toni ), Joseph Ball (Kelly), Derrick Sears (Esther), and the late Victor Lupton. Grandfather of Ashlee, T.J. and Nikki Champagne, Brittaney, Kimberly, Samantha, and Monica Ball, Joseph Jr., Danielle, Malina, and Aiden Ball, Alex and Chelsea Ball, Mikey and Xavier Sears, Ty Bridges, Hayden and Kelly Lupton.rnCome celebrate 52 congenial years Friday, March 2 from 4PM at Daley Life Celebration Studio, Swedesboro where Storytime will begin at 6PM. rnrnwww.payforward.com/jamessears any donations are greatly appreciated no matter how large or smallrn –
