James - Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
James was a dedicated employee for over 30 years to Texify Industries. After retiring from Texify, James worked many years at Clean-Clean Dry Cleaners and served many years at Johnson Funeral Home and Cremation Services as a Funeral Service Attendant. James enjoyed every single day and never met a stranger. He was a family man, and extremely proud of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchild. He loved nothing better than spending time with them. He will be deeply missed. James made a difference in the life of everyone who knew him, and he leaves behind a tremendous legacy of life, love, and laughter.
James leaves to cherish his memory, his wife of 25 years, Margery Joyner Wester; his daughters, Teresa Cale, and husband, Myron, and Brenda Howell; his son, Gerald Wester; two grandchildren, Amber Bell, and husband Cameron, and Brock Cale; and one great-grandchild, Carter Bell, who was the love of his life.
A Funeral Service will be held on Thursday, September 11, 2025, at 2:00 PM in the Chapel of Johnson Funeral Home & Cremation Services with Pastor Renee Edwards officiating. Burial will follow the service at Maple Spring Baptist Church Cemetery, 1938 NC Hwy 56 E Louisburg, NC. The family will receive friends and relatives on Thursday, September 11, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 1:45 PM at Johnson Funeral Home.
