James Kvarme Obituary

James "Jimmy" Jeffrey Kvarme left us all too soon on January 6, 2017, at age 19. Jimmy passed suddenly due to complications from cancer. He is survived by his parents, Julie and Michael, brother Jeff and sister-in-law Marilyn, and sisters and their husbands Sarah and Matthew Williams and Katie and Patrick Rush, grandmother Carol Oelsner, his dogs Flash and Lulu, and loving aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Jimmy attended Didion Elementary School, Sutter Middle School, Christian Brothers High School and graduated from Montana Academy December 22, 2016. He played water polo at Christian Brothers and basketball and soccer at Montana Academy. As a member of the Park Terrace swim team he was the 12-and-under boys breast stroke league champ and a member of the boys 12-and-under league champ medley relay team.

Mike, Julie, Sarah, Jeff, Katie--Coincidence. Talking to Mo&Les. They recalled that when young Jimmy walked down the street--he would try to touch every bush. We then recalled this photo.

Our condolences and prayers are with you. He was a great friend to Andres and they had good times hanging out at CB, water polo and swim. It was a gift to have known him, a fine young man.

Mike and Julie I am so very sorry to hear of Jimmy's passing. I remember his sweetness and loving personality all those years we had the SLC Faith In Action book group at your home. There are no words to express the deep sorrow I feel. May your faith sustain you through this difficult time. Know that you raised an exceptional young man. God Bless you and your family.
