About	Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, as a young boy Jim’s parents moved west to California, but he spent summers enjoying Oklahoma with his beloved relatives. A true cowboy at heart who always sought to do the right thing, this rooted Jim’s character and code of ethics throughout his life. Additionally, an important milestone in his life was accepting Christ as his Savior at a Billy Graham crusade, where he also met the evangelist. Jim loved people and they loved being his friend; he had very fond memories of his growing up years in Fullerton California where he attended Sunny Hills High School. Through his best friend from high school Jim met his future wife, Tyler, as she too shared a love of all things cowboy related. Jim and Tyler married in 1979 and continued their adventure together, living 8 years in Alaska and 30 years in Oregon. Jim’s intense work ethic and commitment to serve others rewarded both his customers and employers. During his 35+ year sales career, Jim drove over 1.5 million miles in six western states, providing solutions to his many customers. Everyone who knew Jim would say he was a loyal and authentic friend, a true gentleman. Jim was generous with his time and resources without the need of a spotlight or big display of gratitude. Honest, reliable, and dedicated to friends and family, he was very diligent in his role as beloved Godfather and “Uncle Jimmy” to Ryan and Jordy Jim is survived by his wife, Tyler, cousins in Oklahoma, and his many friends who he considered his extended family. God Bless Jim Magee…We miss you, but will never forget you. Happy Trails…till we meet again!
