Jim was the son of the late John and Hazel Barclay of Vernon, NY. Jim was born in Camden, New York and raised in Verona.
He graduated from the University of Georgia in 1965 and married his sweetheart Jane in 1964. They moved to six different states before settling and making their forever home in Scituate in 1974.
Jim had a successful career in retail. One of his proudest accomplishments was being the Executive Vice President of Reebok International and President of Reebok Shoes in the 1980s. He was fortunate to retire early in his career to spend more time with his wife and family enjoying his passions, boating and golf.
One of his favorite pastimes was the love and devotion he gave to his seven grandchildren.
Jim was the devoted husband of the late Jane (Chariton) Barclay of Scituate; loving father of Sean Barclay and Kerri (Russell) Barclay of Denver, CO, Kimberly (Barclay) Brown and Todd Brown of Scituate and Adam Barclay and Rachel (Cavanagh) Barclay of Scituate; proud grandfather of Tyler, Jack and Keiran Barclay of Denver, Reese and Ryan Brown of Scituate and Sam and Will Barclay of Scituate.
