March 23, 1970 - February 10, 2023
Born in Fort Lauderdale, FL to James and Lourdes Cowgill. Jim passed away at home after a courageous five and a half year battle with ALS.
Jim will be forever known as a terrific husband, father, son, brother (both biologically and fraternally), friend, coworker, boss, coach, and neighbor.
Survivors include his wife Marlene, children James III and Ashlyn, his parents; Lourdes and Jim Cowgill, sister Lourdes Cowgill Janssen (Herb), aunt and uncle Elena and Jose DelAlamo, sisters and brothers in-laws, nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, and friends that were like family.
Please see his online tribute at memorialplan.net
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Team Gleason, a 501(c)(3) organization, (teamgleason.org) to support those currently living with ALS.

The world lost a great one in Jimmy C. RIP, I wish I could play a game of forks with a Bud Light Knight hat just one (more) time with the great man.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Please take comfort in the words found at 2nd Thessalonians 2:16,17.
