Date of Death: April 8, 2018
Date of Birth: October 15, 1935
James Culleton-Lisbon-James Culleton at age 82 died at the Hospice House in Auburn on April 8 surrounded by family. James joined the marines at a young age and was always proud to be a marine. In 1960 he married Marna Eldene Chadbourne and they enjoyed many happy years together until her death in 2015. Together they shared three children: Carol, the oldest, Harvey, second oldest son and Linda, the youngest daughter. Jimmy was a very hard worker. When he was young he worked with his father in a logging business. From there he worked at Marcal Paper until their closing. Next he worked for a state facility, Pineland Center until he retired in 2008. While holding down full time jobs he maintained Highland Cemetery in Poland. He also loved his furry friends, Babie, Sophie, Smokey, Pudgie, Harley and Heidi. Jimmy was a fun loving guy who easily made friends and everyone seemed to like him. He will be sadly missed. No services will be held at this time.
