James A. "Jim" Price
October 11, 1967 ~ October 31, 2022
James A. “Jim” Price, 55, Mooresville, passed away at home on October 31, 2022, after a brief battle with cancer. James was born October 11, 1967, in Greencastle, to the Renos Price and Charlotte (Sherfield) Clark, who both survive.
James grew up in the Spencer area and attended Owen Valley High School. Armed with a strong work ethic, a passion for the outdoors, and fascination for heavy equipment, James became a well-respected and accomplished heavy equipment operator. He worked for JDH Construction for many years. He enjoyed restoring old tractors, especially John Deeres and being around the farm. He would jump at any opportunity to help his good friend and his dad on the farm – he was content working. He also loved to deer hunt, racing derby cars, and working with mini-rod tractors. James never met a stranger and was always thinking of others. He will be fondly remembered for his outgoing personality and wonderful sense of humor.
Survivors include his wife of 26 years, Tammy (Duncan) Price, to whom he was united in marriage April 20, 1996; daughter, Madison (Christian) Neitzel; father and step-mother, Renos and Vicky Price; mother and step-father, Charlotte and Howe Clark; brother, Brad (Keri) Price; sister, Teresa (David) Beach; step-siblings, Jeremy Smith, Howe Clark III, Heather Gayhart, and Susan Cassanello.

I always thought when I drove the school bus that the bus garage came out to plow my driveway, not always sometimes Jim beat them to it! He was a great guy!
James was always a fun person to be around. He knew how to make you laugh but also wasn’t afraid to give you tough love. He loved his family more than life itself, even when it wasn’t easy. I’ve never felt like anything less than part of their family even after years of not seeing or talking to them. James will forever be loved and remembered as such a good person to those who knew him.
James was always like a dad to me every time I came over. We always had a good time no matter what mood I was in he would always cheer me up. Gave me tough love, but it was for the better. They will always be family to me no matter how long it’s been since we all talked and seen each other! You will never be forgotten❤️ߥº
James was like my other dad! He took all of us girls that were with Maddy in like his own! He was always pulling pranks on us and giving us a hard time, so to James thank you for being the dad I didn’t have and Tammy, and Maddy Aaron and I are here if you need anything at all. Y’all will always be family.
