Jim was born on June 18, 1937, in Wausau, Wisconsin, to the late Edward and Emma Weiland. He served in the Army Reserves and graduated from the University of South Florida. He worked for 34 years at General Telephone in Wisconsin and GTE Data Services in Indiana and Florida. He was a member of Cherry Log Christian Church, where he served in many capacities until illness limited that. He loved sailing, making pine needle baskets, fishing, woodworking, doing Lego, volunteering, the Green Bay Packers, the Atlanta Braves, the mountains, his church and his family.
