James Dewar Obituary
December 31, 1964 - August 8, 2021
James (Jim) William Dewar passed away suddenly at the age of 56. Jim is survived by his partner Crystal and his cherished dog, Athena, stepfather Larry Accordino, adopted son Nibardo, his siblings John (Tracy), Trish (Ivan), Corinna (Rob), his nephews, niece, cousins and extended family and friends who will miss him so. He is preceded in death by his mother Joan, father James, brothers Joseph and Jeffery and his son Andrew.
Jim enjoyed many hobbies and loved spending time in nature and with his friends and family. He shared his passion for fishing, camping, golfing and cooking with those around him. A lifetime bay area sports fan, people will remember Jim for his easy smile and quick laugh. He was known by many for his kind heart and avid storytelling.
