The Krafts have lived in NE Ohio their whole lives. Tammy grew up in Mayfield Heights and Jim grew up in Willoughby. They currently reside in Perry, Ohio, near the Lake Erie Perry Park. They have also lived in Euclid, Waite Hill and Chardon, right on the Mentor border.
Jim loves helping others create businesses and get their ideas onto the playing field. Tammy has been directly involved in all creation aspects, however, Jim is leading the way on the grinding adventure to create some new relationships, get some exercise in, along with some fresh air. Jim states: "being behind a computer too much just isn't that healthy." He is hoping the tree/stump removal business may help with that. Jim also enjoys a great movie, play, 60's bands, photography, watercolor painting, and working on his gag panel series called "Brain Shorts". He has even authored a book which has gotten some incredible endorsements. (Ask him for a copy, you just may get your socks blessed off.)
The theme of the stump grinding business is: "Making Way for the New." One of Jim's favorite topics is in regards to keeping a healthy eternal perspective.
They have 2 adult children living in Dallas.Their daughter was recently engaged and is currently working with Jim on her new pop-up book and their son was recently married in October of 2024. Somehow they are thriving in that hot Dallas sun!
Their son was a pole vaulter in high school, so Jim, who has a crazy imagination thought it would be great to get him to wear an inflatable sumo wresting costume doing a pole vault. Jim thought it would be hilarious and most likely go viral. Well it never did happen so if you know of a pole vaulter that would want to do this, let Jim know!
Tammy is a Certified Prevention Specialist at Crossroads Health giving prevention talks in Lake County Schools.
They are active members in their local church, support Stoney Glenn Camp in Madison and Teen Challenge in Perry.
