Kenneth James "Jim" Eitniear, age 78, of Holland, Ohio passed away Sunday, July 25, 2021. He was born September 7, 1942 to Kenneth Eitniear and Marie (Harris) Betz in Toledo. Jim grew up in Toledo with his four siblings.

Jim was also a fan of Drag Racing and attended several events at Milan Speedway in Michigan. He was known by many to be an outdoorsman enjoying camping, fishing, boating and white water rafting.

Jim was a kind and loving father, grandfather, brother and friend, cherishing the time he was able to spend with his family, especially his grandchildren. He also shared his life with his longtime partner Billie, living, laughing and loving life one day at a time.

Jim was preceded in death by his parents, Kenny and Marie and his stepmother, Edith.
