    3. James "Jim" Russell Spaulding, 59, of Twin Falls, Idaho, passed away Thursday evening, Jan. 29, 2015, at his home in Twin Falls, after a brief struggle with cancer. Jim was born Jan. 15, 1956, in Rexburg, the son of Norma Jean Archibald and Melvin Bruce Spaulding. He grew up and attended schools in Rexburg, graduating from Madison High School in 1974. He furthered his education at Ricks College, until he was called to serve an LDS mission to Independence, Missouri. After his mission, Jim moved to Provo, Utah, where he worked to get his real estate license and eventually, owned his own brokerage. Jim met his sweetheart, Annette Jensen, and they were married for time and all eternity Feb. 19, 1982, in the Idaho Falls LDS Temple. Together, they raised five children: Coleman, Laci, Lexie, Taylor and McKenzie. Jim worked in sales and marketing that took him all over the United States; they lived in North Carolina, Arizona and St. George, Utah, and finally settled in Twin Falls. Jim, Annette and family opened Precision Vinyl Products in Twin Falls, which became a very successful company for many years. In 2006, Jim was diagnosed with MS and eventually sold the business and became a regional manager for Ply-Gem Building Products, where he worked until the time of his death. Jim's greatest accomplishment was his family and loved to be a part of their lives, teaching them lifelong skills and goals. He loved the game of golf and enjoyed the times spent on the golf course with friends and family. He was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where he served in many callings and always gave 100 percent. He was an amazing husband, father, grandfather, son, brother and friend.
