James "Jim" Biciolis Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Dec. 8 to Dec. 13, 2022.
James "Jim" Biciolis of Glendale, Arizona lost his battle with depression on November 3rd, 2022. James was born in Paris, France on December 13th, 1957 and traveled around parts of the world in his childhood as part of a US military family before settling in Arizona. James was a devout Christian and truly believed in his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was a beloved friend to so many and his sincere kindness to strangers, especially military veterans and people less fortunate than himself, was one of his most admirable qualities. He loved being a father and spending time with his two sons. He also thoroughly enjoyed the outdoors, crafting, football, and helping others. He enjoyed a long, successful career at W.W. Grainger and made strong friendships while finding renewed fulfillment at his last place of employment, a local Cracker Barrel in Goodyear. James is preceded in death by his parents, George and Lydia. James is survived by his two sons, Jared and Jacob. He is also survived by his sister Georgene (Michael), brother Michael (Cindi), sister Anna (Rodney), and brother Thomas (Carolyn). Lastly, he is survived by his former wife and mother of his children, Souzy "Becky" Biciolis. In lieu of donations or flowers, the family asks that you buy a veteran or a stranger a meal out of kindness, in true James Biciolis fashion.
