James Kinneman Obituary
A graveside service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 20, at the Maplewood Presbyterian Cemetery near Erhard, Minnesota. Arrangements are entrusted to the Peterson Brothers Green Lake Funeral Home in Spicer. www.peteronbrothers.com
Jimmy was born on January 29, 1960, to Vernie Kinneman and Janice Weeks in Huntington Park, California. Vernie and Janice would later separate, and Vernie went on to Mary Lynn Snyder in 1974. Early in his life Jimmy attended school in Lynwood CA. After his parents separated Jimmy relocated with Vernie, Lynn and his brothers to Minnesota. He attended school in Underwood and Fergus Falls.
Jimmy's hobbies and interests included family, drawing, bowling, fishing, numbers and games. He loved watching professional wrestling with his dad. Even after Vernie passed away, Jimmy never missed an episode of Monday Night Raw.
Jimmy is survived by his mothers, Lynn Kinneman and Janice (Weeks) Petit; his brothers, Vernon, Terry (Cyndi), Randy and Wayne (Jennifer); his sister, Susan (Brett) Meade; his aunt, Violet and uncles, Robert and Randy, besides several nieces, nephews and cousins.
Jimmy was preceded in death by his father, Vernie Kinneman; paternal grandparents, Benard and Grace Hoffman; maternal grandparents, James and Eileen Weeks; aunts, Rosalie, Jane and Patty; and uncles, Rueben and Lloyd.
