James Gardner's Obituary
James "Jim" Gardner,71, of Red Creek NY, passed away
unexpectedly Saturday March 14, 2020.
Jim was born in Lyons NY- son of the late Clifford Gardner and
Alfreda Cavailer Gardner.
Prior to his retirement Jim was an electrician at Comstock in Red
Creek for 30+ years. He also was employed at Empire Seneca
Metal in Waterloo as a machine operator for 10 years.
Jim was a proud member of the Red Creek Fire Department. He
was currently active in his volunteering role. Past title includes
assistant Fire Chief for the department.
Jim's proudest title was being called "Grandpa Turkey". He loved
spending time with his 4 Grandchildren. It could be as simple as
4wheeling, snowmobiling, throwing a pole in the water or just
taking a tractor ride thru his woods. You could find Jim most days
enjoying his coffee at the 104 store or the Village Restaurant. Jim
loved spending time outside tinkering in his garage or cutting
wood. He thoroughly enjoyed every new hunting season
especially with his son.
Jim is predeceased by his brothers Lloyd and Keith Gardner and
sister Joyce Ingleston
He is survived by his 3 children- Wendy (Roy) Fillingham of
Alabama. Stormie (Jim) Bligh of Solvay and Son James (Samantha)
Gardner of North Rose. Brother Cliff Gardner of Wolcott, Sister
Sharon Barlow of Fulton. Ex-wife Terry (Phil) Larussa of Wolcott
and 4 grandchildren- Rylend, Tyler Joy, Grayden and Foster.
A celebration of life will take place Saturday, August 15, from 1:00-4:00 at the Red Creek Conservation Club, 6924 Waters Road,Red Creek. For anyone wishing to make a contribution in Jim's name,
