James Raymond Iddings or Jimmy as many called him, was the light of our lives. He was the funniest man on earth, made everyone feel welcome and lucky to have known him. He lit up a room with his humor, his love of people and his positive attitude. He loved his family and friends deeply. Jimmy was born in Kent Washington and graduated from Kent Meridian High School in 1950. He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Jackie Colson Iddings, and his son, Randy Iddings, daughter, Ronanne Riley and son-in-law Jack Riley. He was very proud of his 4 grandchildren: James Ryan Iddings 24, Erin Marie Iddings 22, John Jackson Riley 22, and James Raymond Riley 19. His dog Stuey is also wondering where he is. He was an athlete in high school, playing football and basketball and was the state champion in the high hurdles. He had an athletic scholarship to the University of Washington and was an Olympic hopeful for track. However, school was not the right path for Jimmy, and he soon joined his brother in business, forming a successful company still being run by his son Randy today. For over twenty years, he was a member of a barbershop quartet called the Ford Do Matics and together they sang all over the United States, as well as performing overseas for the US troops on a USO Tour. He spent the last 15 years in Winthop, enjoying the community, his many newfound friends and puttering on his farm. A great source of pride was his wheel line which he put together himself; he enjoyed seeing the water pumping out of it and growing this first year's crop. He radiated happiness all of his life and we will all miss him immensely. There will be two celebrations of Jim's life; Friday September 19th at the Winthrop Auditorium at 2:00 pm and Friday September 26th from 1:00 to 5:00 pm at the Inn at Gig Harbor. on September 14, 2008.⁵
