James Linfield Gibson, aged 92, passed away on June 30, 2024, in Green
Valley, AZ.

Born on September 8, 1931 in Benton Harbor, MI. Jim served honorably in
the United States Coast Guard from 1959 to 1963, a period during which
he contributed significantly to his unit's operations. After his
military service, he transitioned to a civilian career as a Pressman in
Monrovia, CA, where he worked for approximately 15 years.

His entrepreneurial spirit led him to Palm Springs, where he established
a successful business in the burgeoning field of heart rate monitors
before retiring in Lake Havasu. Education played a pivotal role in Jim's
life. He was a proud alumnus of Pasadena City College, which laid the
foundation for his diverse career paths. Jim found great joy on the golf
course, a passion that saw him and a group of close friends traveling by
motor homes to various golf courses across the country. His love for the
sport was only matched by his commitment to his faith. He was a regular
at Desert Hills Lutheran Church in Green Valley, where he enjoyed the
Southern Gospel services on Saturday afternoon.

Jim leaves behind his beloved wife, Vivian, daughter Gay Lin Gibson
Chambers, three sons, four grandchildren, three nephews, and one niece.
He was predeceased by his parents, Louise Metsker Gibson and David
Gibson, and his brother, David.
