James K. Jensen, age 53, of Curtiss, passed away on Tuesday, December 20, 2022, at Aspirus Wausau Hospital under the tender care of Hospice as a result of congestive heart failure.

James was born on March 16, 1969, the son of Jon (Bonnie) Jensen and Barbara (Stanienda) Jacobson in Beloit. He graduated from Wisconsin Dells High School in 1987. James worked for several restaurants in Wisconsin Dells during his younger years. He moved to Minnesota and worked as a courier for an auto parts store, tree cutting service and factory work. After 15 years, James returned to Wisconsin and settled in Curtiss. He pursued his dream as an over the road truck driver with several area trucking companies, including C.R. England where he received his training and JD Bauer. A back injury put him on disability.

Jim loved deer hunting, fishing, riding his Harley-Davidson, camping and playing his guitar. He also loved his dogs, Copper and Pete.
