James's Story

Hello classmates and friends. This is Jim's sister, Jennett (class of 78). I'm writing this to let everyone know (who had not already heard) that Jim passed away in April of 2013. I'm maintaining his classmates profile because I know Jim would want to let his friends know that he had always remembered and thought about all of you throughout the years. He just didn't always have computer access to keep the communication open. Despite his early passing, Jim led a full life. After high school, he started into the food service industry, working for various restaurants. Jim was a great cook and had always been interested in pursuing a career as a chef. He learned everything he could and, eventually, opened his own restaurant, which proved to be a great success! Along the way, he married and had one son and two grandchildren. After many years, he found himself single, again...Expand for more
, and moved to Arizona to be closer to me. He continued his love of food service and returned to working in restaurants, along with returning to college. After completing his degree in culinary arts, he worked in a few more restaurants, mostly in management, before landing a dream job as Director of Food Services for a local hospital in Tucson. Within a few years, he became disabled and took an early retirement. He never remarried, but he did have a close companion for most of his years in Tucson. When she took a job out of the area, Jim elected not to join her, but remained in Tucson. In 2011, he returned to Red Bluff, where he lived until his passing in April of 2013. Thank you for visiting Jim's page and thinking of him. I know he is smiling down on all of us, and waiting for the day when we'll all be together again at the giant, high school reunion in the sky :-)
