James Osborne Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born in Brockton on January 11, 1954, Jim-fondly known as "Jimmy"-worked as a line worker in manufacturing. He was known as a "gentle giant," a kind and positive soul. In his later years, he enjoyed arts and crafts and playing bingo at the Colony Center in Abington.
Jim had a deep love for animals, especially his cats, and a fascination with tigers. He enjoyed traveling, reading, history, and watching Westerns. He also had a lifelong admiration for Marilyn Monroe.
He is survived by his sister, Ruth Benvie, and her husband Keith of Plymouth; his nieces and nephew, Jocelyn Benvie of Plymouth, Keith Benvie Jr. of Rockland, and Jesse Osborne of Wyoming; and his great-nieces, Charlotte, Emmie and Christina.
A funeral service will be held on Tuesday, July 29, 2025, at 11:00 AM at the Cartmell-Davis Funeral Home, 619 State Road, Plymouth (Manomet). Visitation with the Osborne family will take place prior to the service, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM. Interment will follow at Hillcrest Cemetery, Plympton, MA.
