James M Okray

I remember Jim from Wausau Area Jaycees. He was always willing to lend a helping hand. My favorite memory was when we did Color Vision, and watching the Packer Games while stuffing those packets. Rest in Peace my friend.

We were saddened indeed to see that Jim had passed away. We remember him as an extremely hard working young man; displaying a positive attitude while growing up in Wausau. (This in part due to his wonderful parents.) Our hearts and prayers are especially with Cathy and Beth at this time.

I am saddened to hear of Jim's passing. He was my classmate at Newman High, and I have many memories of him. He had a kind heart and loved to joke around and laugh. We were in a play together our junior year and he was cast as the butler. I remember seeing him completely come to life doing theater. It was obvious that acting was something he connected to and enjoyed very much. We connected on Facebook a couple of years ago and he would always check in from time to time to say hello and ask what was new. He will be missed. My deepest condolences to his family. May you take comfort in your memories of him, and in knowing that he touched many lives. RIP, my friend.

I'm so sorry to hear of the death of Jimmy. I have fond memories of the students and families at Stettin School.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Jim's family. We went to St. Matt's and Newman together and I remember Jim's smiling face. I was glad to have reconnected with him on Facebook a few years ago. May his spirit be at peace.
