After a successful 30-year career as an electrician at Buick, James retired, leaving behind a legacy of hard work and dedication.

He was also an enthusiastic traveler, always seeking new adventures and experiences. James will always be remembered for his warmth, humor, and the love he gave to all who knew him.


James is survived by his wife, Gloria; children: Jacob Osborne, Raymond (Brenda) Osborne, and Elizabeth (William) Wheeler; grandchildren: Heather, Lisa, Brittany, Matthew, Emily, Cody, Nick, Mary, Jack, and Andrew; great grandchildren: Keagan, Jocelynn, and Elliana; mother, Louise Thomas; brother, John Thomas; sister, Connie Selvera and many other loving family members and friends.
