LEMIEUX, JAMES EDWARD, 69Dunnellon - James Edward LeMieux (Jim), 69, went to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on Thursday, July 31, 2008 in Ocala, Florida. He lived a life wrapped in the love of God, which he illustrated daily in his love for his family. He would have us remember to know Jesus, live, walk, trust and rest in Him. It was not his words that said to be like Jesus, it was his actions. His family cherishes the memories of his faithful love for all, which was rooted in Jesus faithful love for him. When you looked in his eyes you saw an honest, genuine, unconditional loving man who adored his family and whose family adored him.
