James Hawkins Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Voran Funeral Home - Dearborn Chapel on Dec. 17, 2024.
James Thomas Hawkins was born on September 27, 1970 in Dearborn, Michigan to Robert and Elaine Hawkins. James, who resided in Dearborn, Michigan, passed away on December 16, 2024 at the age of 54. Beloved husband of Stephanie Hawkins. Loving father of James and Lindsay Hawkins. Dear brother of Kim (Mike) Mifsud, Vickie (Mike) Russick, Robert (Fran) Hawkins and Richard (Debbie) Hawkins. He was preceded in death by his parents Robert and Elaine Hawkins.

Jim was a wonderful person who loved life. Jim was a devoted son, husband and father. He had a huge heart and he was always willing to help anyone who needed it. He lived life to the fullest, and was always up for an adventure. He was a fighter by nature, and cancer was no exception, but unlike anything else that was not a battle he could win, so he's home with God now, cancer-free, reunited with Elaine and Bob. James will be deeply missed by family and friends.

No formal services will be held at the funeral home. Interment Cadillac Memorial Gardens West, Thursday December 19, 2024, 12:00 p.m.
