He also enjoyed playing the guitar and listening to music. Survivors include his wife, Maria (Klapprodt) and son Mark Wehle and his girlfriend, Leslie Neviaser Out of an abundance of love and due to the restrictions of "social distancing", the family has prudently chosen to hold James's services privately.
