James Swetnam of Monkey Run passed away too soon on January 5, 2022. He was born April 17, 1966 in Mountain Home, Arkansas to Carl and Edith Swetnam. James was preceded in death by his father and mother and two brothers-in-law, Larry Hudson and Joe Kidwell.

James was an avid reader and knew something about almost everything. He was known to his gaming friends as ''the Prof''. Those who knew him enjoyed his good-natured sense of humor, sarcasm and fun. He lived a quiet life, loved reading, gaming and nature. He was a faithful St. Louis Cardinals fan. He was a genuine, generous friend with a tender heart.
James lived in the Monkey Run community all his life and was employed for many years at K&B Ice Company.
