James Warfield Obituary
JD: born 12-8-1988 in Flagstaff passed 3-25-2011 at his home in Glendale. JD loved hunting and fishing, taking his first elk at over 400 yards at 13 years old. JD also loved sports, he played and excelled in hockey from the time he was 5 until his high school years. If you played with him or against him you would never forget his passion and hard headed, never quit attitude.JD graduated and enlisted in the Marine Corp 1 week after high school. He was promoted to E3 for his leadership and hard work in boot camp. He served his country well with a tour in Iraq in 2009. His last year of life was spent trying to overcome an injury that took his ability to walk, but it didn't take his spirit. He is survived by a large loving family that included his sister Codi and nephew Jaxon, Glendale. His mother Susie, Peoria, his father Ron and mom Sherry, sisters Brittany and Samantha and his nephews Steven and KJ, Flagstaff. JD was also surrounded by a large loving group of friends. There will be a Celebration of Life in Honor of JD on April 9th at 12pm at his Grandparents house in Lake Montezuma. 3660 Montezuma Ave. In lieu of flowers please make a donation in JD's name to the Wounded Warriors Fund or the Paralyzed Veterans of America. ~Semper Fi Son~

To Each and Everyone of the Warfield's Family and Friends,
There are no real words that we could comfort you and truely give you peace at the lost of your child, no matter their age or yours at this time. Although so many of us will try, maybe to comfort ourselves and to share a memory with you that we hold dear.
First of all: Thanks to you JD for your service to our country. I remember the day you told John and I you had joined the Marines. We thanked you and told you how very proud we were of you AND YOU gave us that "ear to ear" Smile of yours. Your Dad always kept us informed as to where you were and how you were doing. He also would get that"ear to ear" Smile.
Guess that is where you got It?
I most remember when I first met you at your Dad and Sherry's wedding at your Grandparent's home. You were so DARN CUTE in that black suit and boots.A Smile still comes across my face when I think of you that very day.
So in your Honor JD we will put a Smile on our faces through us, through you and ask God to give us the strength to make it that"Ear to Ear" one of yours. Our Prayers and Love are with each and everyone of you. You All know if there is anything we could do now or later,we are there.
With All Our Love, Susan and John White
