James Hicks Obituary
James D. Sr.
James D. Hicks Sr., 73 years old, died November 17, 2015, at Hospice of Northwest Ohio in Perrysburg, Ohio.
Jim was born March 23, 1942, in West Virginia. At the age of 10, he and his family moved to Ohio where Jim ultimately made his home in Millbury. Jim worked in the Transportation Industry for 45 years and was preceded in death by his father, James; his mother, Leslie, and his brothers, Gary and Charles. He is survived by his brother, Daniel; his sons, James and Matthew; his daughter, Kathy; 8 grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren; 3 stepchildren, and 4 step-grandchildren.
Jim loved to travel and work with his hands, spending his free time doing carpentry and auto work. Jim never met a stranger and helped anyone who needed him. His family and friends remember him as the "great story-teller". He was a lover-of-life, a cherished father, brother, grandfather and friend, who will be enormously missed and forever remembered. Jim loved the Lord and found peace and comfort in his Christian faith.
A small private service will be held for family and close friends. Condolences may be forwarded to his children at 28749 Lemoyne Road, Millbury, Ohio 43447.
