James Randolph (Jim) Ayers

Notes:

OBITUARY

From Find A Grave:

SAINT PETERSBURG, FL - James Randolph Ayers passed away peacefully on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, at Saint Anthony's Hospital in Saint Petersburg, FL.

Born in Mount Airy, NC on August 26, 1932 to Margie Lee and Euell Sinclair Ayers, Jim spent his early years there with his parents and two older brothers, Nyles and Perry.

The Ayers family moved to Baltimore, MD in 1942, and returned to Mount Airy in 1945 following the end of the Second World War.

After high school, Jim enlisted in the United States Army to serve his country, as a Sergeant, during the Korean Conflict.

Following four years serving our nation, Jim attended Columbia College in New York and graduated from Bentley in Waltham, MA with a Bachelor's Degree in Accounting.

In 1998, Jim and his wife, Christine, moved to Saint Petersburg, FL where he ably expanded his CPA practice.

Jim is survived by his wife Christine, of Saint Pete Beach, FL; his daughter Diana of Lexington, MA; his sons James of Jersey City, NJ, and Jerald (Heidi), and grandson Timothy all of Billerica, MA; and stepchildren, Jeff of Parkville, MD, and Elena (John), and their daughter, Isabella all of Tuscon, AZ.

Jim is also survived by his brothers, Perry (Fanny), of San Francisco, and Nyles (Cynthia Young) of Nashville, TN.

They acknowledge that their yearly family reunion get-togethers will continue in honor of Jim, but will obviously never be the same without their younger brother.
