James Morris Seale, Jr., a devoted father, grandfather, and pillar of faith, passed away on August 17, 2025, at the age of 77. Born on November 8, 1947, James lived a life that reflected his strong values and love for his family.

He is preceded in death by his parents, James Morris Seale, Sr and Beverly Seale, and his loving wife, Debra Lynn Seale. James is survived by his sister Kelly Norman (Brad); his children, Stephanie Parsons, Paul Seale (Angel), and Angie Davis (Russ); grandchildren, Jessica, James, Jacob, Steiner, and Gunnar; and great-grandchildren, Daniel and Charlotte.

James instilled in his family a strong faith in God, a robust work ethic, and a passion for Alabama football. He also shared his love of sports with his grandsons, talking to them of his many experiences in baseball and creating cherished memories.

The family will receive friends on Thursday, August 21, 2025, from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm, followed immediately by a service celebrating James' life.

May James' legacy of love, faith, and family inspire those who knew him.
