Jim was born in Flint, MI on July 8, 1955, son of the late Kenneth and Rosemarie (Quaderer) Ferguson. A proud graduate of Davison High School, Class of 1974, Jim was a member of the wrestling team and built friendships and memories that lasted a lifetime. He joined the family business, Ferguson Block in Davison, MI, where he worked with unwavering commitment for almost 40 years before retiring in 2008. His work ethic and dedication were hallmarks of the way he lived his life. Jim found joy in life’s simple and meaningful pleasures. He had a green thumb for growing tomatoes, a knack for small engine repair, and a special love for riding motorcycles and spending time on his tractor. Known for his delicious grill cooking, Jim cherished time spent at family gatherings — sharing stories, laughter, and good food with those he loved most. On August 25, 2007, Jim married Tammy, the love of his life, in a beautiful ceremony in Otisville, MI. Their marriage was filled with warmth, companionship, and shared adventures. Jim’s legacy is one of dedication, humility, and deep-rooted love for family and the simple pleasures of life. He will be remembered fondly by all who knew him and will be dearly missed.
