James SAXON Obituary

James was also a member of the Odd Fellows and enjoyed playing golf and biking in his spare time. James is survived by his loving daughters Sydney and Bayley Saxon of Graton, his mother Shirley Ellisor (Cary) and his siblings Rachel Ellisor-Darino (Hugo) and Jerry Spurlin.

James what a great spirit you had. We spent many hours cruising between the high school and the lake during the last few weeks of our senior year. Will miss seeing you at the reunions. You were a great guy.
