James William Wynn, a cherished husband, father, and grandfather, passed away on December 25, 2024, in Dallas, Texas. Born on February 15, 1940, in Knoxville, Tennessee, James was a man deeply rooted in love, family, and camaraderie. He spent his life not just as a member of the Wynn family but as its steadfast Patriarch, guiding and nourishing the bonds that held them together.
James had an undeniable passion for being around his loved ones. He found his greatest joy in the laughter and warmth of family gatherings, where stories were shared and memories were made. His love for family extended beyond simple moments; it was an ever-present force in his life that shaped who he was and enriched the lives of those around him.

He proudly served his country in the Army, a testament to his strong character and commitment to duty. This chapter of his life influenced many aspects of his journey, shaping his values and dedication to those he loved.
James is preceded in death by the love of his life, Mary Wynn, alongside countless family members whose lives he touched with his kindness and wisdom. The love between James and Mary was a remarkable bond that resonated through the years, serving as a foundation for the family they built together.
