Throughout his life, James A. Eubanks was a natural storyteller. His tall tales and true stories delighted all who heard them. Many of his stories derived from his work experiences; at various times, he was a traveling salesman, an airplane inspector, an MP, and finally an employee and eventual manager of the Co-op.
Aside from storytelling, he also had a lifelong interest in the study and collecting of Native American artifacts. He enjoyed the pursuits of mind and body; his love of reading was only equaled by his enjoyment of gardening and fishing. Late in life, he developed his artistic skills and avidly painted.
James A. Eubanks was a man of abundant personality and deep faith. Until we meet him on the other side of this life, we can be assured he has returned to the loving embrace of his wife and the family that had left before him. In this world, he will be missed. In the next, he will be welcomed.
