James R. Plummer

January 20, 1944 — November 19, 2015

James R. Plummer, age 71, passed away on November 19, 2015. 

Born in East Liverpool, James lived in the Canton area most of his life. His business skills started early in life when he obtained his own customers and formed his own paper route when there were none available. James went on to work at a newspaper in Painesville, Burt Greenwald Chevrolet, Reynolds & Reynolds, and then became self-employed as president of Forms1 and installing computer networks for hospitals. 

After retiring, he created Saranbay Marketing and sold homemade fudge throughout Amish country. In his spare time, James enjoyed golf, trivia, reading, crossword puzzles, movies, computers and finding new recipes to cook. Most of all, he enjoyed spending time with his children and grandchildren. 

Preceded in death by parents, Ray and Helen; James is survived by his loving wife of 14 years, Jane; son, Brian (Laurel); daughters, Chris (Rick) Royer and Tracie Fitch (Shawn McGuyrt); grandchildren, Brayton, Sara, Andrew (Amy), Baylee and McKenna; brother, Ron (Jeanne), sisters, Debbie (Art) Hancock and Nancy (Tim) Evers; lifelong friends, Walt Gryzb and Jim and Sandy McLain; and many other family and friends. James’ family would like to extend a special thank you to Crossroads Hospice and Bachtel and Associates for their loving care.
