James was born on December 2, 1940, in Cleveland, Texas to Edward Smith and Josephine Jeffcoat Smith. He loved his coffee and a good John Wayne western movie.

Those left to cherish his memories are his loving wife, Minnie Smith; his wonderful children, Donna Smith-Minton, Theresa Libby and husband David, Margeret Gummow and husband Greg, and Edward Smith and wife Robin; brother, Alfred Smith and wife Martha; sister, Faye Smith; eight grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; and numerous other loving family and friends.
