In Loving Memory of Jim Pace Forever in Our Hearts
It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we share the passing of Jim Pace, 75, who tragically died following a fire on Thursday. Jim’s passing has left an irreplaceable void in the lives of his family, friends, neighbors, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. His loss is deeply felt across the community he loved and served for so many years.
Jim was more than a friend or neighbor—he was a steady presence, a familiar smile, and a kind spirit who always had time for others. Whether he was lending a helping hand, sharing a story, or simply offering a warm hello, Jim had a way of making people feel welcomed and valued. His generosity was quiet but powerful, rooted in sincerity and genuine care for others.
Born with a heart for family and community, Jim spent his life building connections and nurturing relationships. He believed in showing up for people—in their hardest moments, in their everyday routines, and in their celebrations. To his family, he was a source of love, laughter, wisdom, and unwavering support. To his friends, he was loyal, dependable, and always someone you could count on. To his community, he was a symbol of kindness, resilience, and strength.
Those who knew him best describe Jim as a man who lived fully and loved deeply. He had a laugh that could fill a room and a smile that could soften even the hardest day. He enjoyed simple things—good company, meaningful conversations, and the comfort of being surrounded by those he cared for. He found joy in everyday moments, and he shared that joy freely.
The circumstances of Jim’s passing are heartbreaking, and the community continues to grieve this unimaginable loss. Yet, even in sorrow, there is gratitude—gratitude for the time spent with him, the memories shared, and the love he poured into the world. His spirit, his kindness, and his example will continue to live in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know him.
As family and friends come together to mourn, they also gather to honor the beautiful life Jim lived. To share stories. To laugh. To cry. To remember. To carry his legacy forward—not in grand gestures, but in the everyday kindness he so naturally embodied.
Funeral and memorial arrangements will be shared when the family is ready, and they are appreciative of the outpouring of support during this tender time. They ask for continued prayers for strength, comfort, and peace in the days ahead.
Though he is no longer with us in body, Jim Pace’s memory will remain forever present—in the lives he touched, the love he gave, and the warmth he brought to the world.
Rest in peace, Jim.
You will never be forgotten.
Your light continues to shine in all of us.
