and saw service during WWII in both the Pacific and Atlantic
Theaters.
After the war, he became Chief Engineer and sailed on cargo
ships worldwide. Settling in Southern California, he then held
the position of Director of Engineering in several hospitals
until retirement.
He was preceded in death by June’s mother, Julia Maddlyn
Hodge McGlothlin.
James is survived by his wife, Donna; a daughter, June Fields;

granddaughters, and four great-great grandchildren.
