James Pace Obituary
Jim was a graduate of the McDowell High School, Class of 1977 and Edinboro University Class of 1981. He retired from the U.S. Postal Service after a 32-year career.
Jim was a loving father and grandfather. He was especially proud of his two young grandchildren, who knew him as "Pops." He was a faithful friend to many, and was close with his nieces and nephews. Jim was an avid and lifelong sports fan who greatly enjoyed watching and discussing sports with his family and friends. On most mornings would stop at the home mother Nancy for a cup of coffee.
Jim was preceded in death by his father James Charles Pace Sr.
He is survived by his mother Nancy (Stetter) Pace, wife Tara (Still) Pace, children Miranda (Matthew) Shalkham and James Pace, and grandchildren Olivia and Elijah Shalkham. He is also survived by his sisters Carolyn (Bill) Power, Jacqueline (Gary) Oehling, and Natalie (Dan) Sweny, and cousins Rosemarie (Brackett) and Fred Arbogast, as well as many nieces and nephews.
He will be sadly missed by all.
