| Published by The Miner on Nov. 13, 2025 - Kingman, Arizona - James “Jim” Albert Hansen, 81, passed away peacefully on Oct. 22, 2025. Jim is survived, and lovingly remembered, by his wife, Carol; his children, Jim Jr., Rick, Jill, and Robyn; his sister, Susan; his eleven grandchildren; and his five great-grandchildren. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. Born in Estherville, Iowa, on Sept. 13, 1944, to Albert and Mildred Hansen, Jim grew up with a strong work ethic and a natural curiosity that would guide him throughout his life. After owning and operating a paint and glass store in Clarinda, Iowa, he moved to Kingman, Arizona, in 1979. There, he began a long and successful career as an engineer with Southern California Edison, where he worked until his retirement in 1997. In his later years, Jim built a home in Meadview, Arizona, where he enjoyed the peace and beauty of the desert. A true craftsman and innovator, Jim took great pride in designing and building unique gadgets, creative projects, and thoughtful home enhancements. His creativity was matched only by his generosity—he loved using his talents to help others and to serve his community in countless ways. Jim will be remembered for his inventive spirit, his kind heart, and the lasting impact he made on everyone fortunate enough to know him. |
