James Correll Obituary

JAMES CLYDE CORRELL, JR. James Clyde Correll began a new life with his heavenly Father on September 4, 2005. Jim spent most of his working life in construction and his leisure time building, hunting, fishing, and camping. He was born in Elwood, Nebraska on February 15, 1935. His father was also in construction so Jim lived in all but a handful of states in the continental U.S. Jim married Elizabeth Ann Alexander in Vancouver, Washington on February 27th, 1959. His memory will be cherished by his wife of 46 years, Ann, two sons, James Correll, John Correll, a daughter Catherine Helt, and two sisters, Janet Staats, and Nancy Craig. There will be a three hour viewing from 3 pm until 6 pm on Thursday, September 8th, 2005 at Bruce Lee Memorial Chapel located at 2804 West Lewis, in Pasco, Washington. A graveside service will be at 1 pm Friday, September 9th, 2005 at Park Hill Cemetery in Vancouver, Washington.

I Love you grandpa. I will never forget your hugs, they always... ALWAYS went straight to our hearts. I know that you are in an amazing place now. We all miss you very much but are so excited for you that you are with our Creator. I love my memories of you and I know that you are watching over all of us from an amazing place. Can't wait to see you again. I love you.

I couldn't have asked for a better father-in-law. He was always full of laughter, love, and compassion for his family and friends. I will miss playing cribbage, our talks and his jokes. He will be greatly missed, but we know he is still with us in spirit and memory. I'm thankful for the privilege of knowing you. Take care, Vince

I told my dad to save me a dance when I see him in heaven. He smiled and said he was looking forward to that day. To my mom, thank you for taking care of my dad all those years when he needed you. I love you both.
