James Pappas

Our deepest sympathy to the Pappas family. We have many fond memories of Jim & Georgia, having known them for many years through the Jersey cattle business. Jim was a true legend in the Jersey world. We had the pleasure of spending some time at their home a few years ago which was truly a delight. We always enjoyed their company and visits on the phone--our last visit via the phone was on Dec. 26th just after he returned home from the hospital. Again, our sympathy. George & Shirley...

My husband and his family knew the Pappas family well. I was fortunate enought to meet Jimmy at the California State Fair. He was a kind, considerate gentleman who was extremely complimentary to me about my showmanship in the Jersey open show. My father-in-law Jim Deaver respected him deeply, as do all the Deavers. A great man who will be missed!

Although I only had the great pleasure to be introduced to him once and spend moments with him as he talked about his days showing cattle; his passion for the Jersey cow rang loud and clear. His appreciation for the finer things in life evident and his values - priceless. May he rest in peace and cherish his time once again with his loving wife, Georgia in heaven.

Mr. Pappas was not only a fine gentleman but was a great ambassador to the dairy industry. He and Georgia were awesome friends of my family. With out a doubt a true legend will be missed. Our thoughts & prayers are with all who loved "Pappas"!!!

Jimmy & your siblings. Our deepest sympathy to all the family. May God bless all of you and your families with the courage & strength that all of you may need to the loss of a great man & neighbor. I remember Jimmy & Marilyn when you were kids across the street.

Our condolences to the Pappas Family . To Marilyn ,Bob,Cathy,Lee, Makayla, and Kourtney our love and sympathies go out to you in this difficult time

James Pappas, a very special Cal Poly alumni.

Many thanks to Jimmy and his family for his many years of service to the dairy industry and to Cal Poly University. You will be greatly missed.
