Buettgen Funeral Home, 631 East Grand Ave. in Wisconsin Rapids, Thursday, October 17, 2019, 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., and an hour before the service at church.

James was born on March 20, 1964, in Stevens Point, to the late Anthony and Theresa (Eron) Britz.

Anyone who knew Jim would tell you he was a good man. He was a man of great integrity and humility.He was always willing to spread his wisdom and teach those who were willing to learn.  Jim was good to everyone, and found the good in everyone,lovingand caring unconditionally.  Jim enjoyed getting away with his wife,spending time with his family, his fur-boys Willie and Henry, but especially his grandchildren, Alexah and Carsen. We will all miss him dearly.

The family would like to thank the Rudolph Fire Department first responders and EMTs for their quick response and tireless efforts to help Jim, and to all family and friends for their kind words and comforting prayers.
