James Douglas Warwick, born July 25, 1938 in Milwaukee, WI to the Floyd and Lucie Brown Warwick, has completed his life journey and went to be born with his Savior where he will no longer suffer from the effects of Parkinson’s.
Among his many accomplishments, he retired from the United States Naval Reserve as a Senior Chief Petty Officer serving 20 years in the Seabees (Construction Battalion). He was the Training Director for the Wisconsin Operating Engineers Apprentice program from its inception in 1968 through many of the formative years in Coloma, WI. He has been a member of the International Operating Engineers Union for over 50 years.
While residing in Redgranite, WI, where he designed and built an earth sheltered home, Jim served on the Waushara County Board of Adjustments for 27 years, along with being a Trustee of Elder for numerous years at Emmaus Lutheran Church in Poy Sippi, WI.
His family includes his wife, Joan, to whom he was married to for 49 years; his children, Michael (Karen), Jennifer (Mark) Lancourt, Miles and Andrew (Theresa). He is also survived by his sister, Marlys Trinwith; brother, Russel (Rose) Warwick; two sisters-in-law; eight grandchildren, Matthew (Corrine) Lancourt, Jonathon Lancourt, Megan (Tim) Monko, Colin, Jeordie, Cassius, Lucille, and Mavis Warwick; and two great-grandchildren, Marlee and Charlotte Lancourt.
Jim was preceded in death by his parents; brothers, Robert, and Donald; and two nieces.
The family would like to thank Bella Vista for all the care and concern given to both Jim and Joan; Ascension at Home Hospice for the sensitivity and helpfulness shown by their staff; and to Pastor Koepsell and Pastor Hayman from Good Shepherd Lutheran Church for their continued presence in his life with many visits and communion.
A private family service will be held. In lieu of flowers, Jim has requested that any memorials be made in the form of donations to either Good Shepherd Lutheran Church of Oshkosh (debt retirement) or Ascension at Home Hospice.
