Jim Opalek
Vice President
Jim and his wife, Donna, have been parishioners of St. John Vianney since they moved from Chicago to Gallatin in 1978. They sang with the choir for several years, and joined the St. Vincent de Paul Society in 2018, serving primarily as case managers.
Jim says he is honored and blessed because his continuing quest for spiritual growth has led him to be a Fourth Degree member of the Bishop Choby Council of The Knights of Columbus as well as a member of St. Vincent de Paul.
Jim worked as a foreman for Bigelow Rugs and Carpets, then as a supervisor in the calibration lab for Toshiba America before embarking on his IT career. His hobbies include family, music, astronomy, pickleball, and meeting and helping people,
