James Sharpe Obituary

Jim Sharpe, 77, of Lake Stevens, WA, passed away peacefully on December 4, 2016, with family at his side. Jim was born to Ernie and Josephine Sharpe on May 9, 1939, in Los Angeles, California. He is preceded in death by his beloved parents, little brother, Jack and his loving wife, Carol Sharpe. He is survived by his sister, Tommie and her husband, Don Lenox of El Cajon, CA; his children, Jack Sharpe, Mike Sharpe, Susie Bryan, Jim Jr. Sharpe, and Julie Lengkeek; nine grandchildren, two great grandchildren and his baby girl, Ginger (dog). He will always be remembered for helping so many, the special times spent with his family camping, hunting and fishing, bringing hope to others, his numerous jokes and gags he loved to play, his smile and the love that he had for his family and friends. As he famously said, "Life is Good!" Memorial services will be held, at 2:30 p.m. on February 11, 2017, at Lake Stevens Fire Conference Center, 10518 - 18th Street SE, Lake Stevens, WA.

This makes me so sad. I knew Jim when Carol and I worked together at WWMG. I will always remember Jim's insane sense of humor, and the way he and Carol were completely devoted to each other. I pray they are together again. My sincere condolences to his family.
