| The Prescott Courier, Prescott, Arizona Sunday, April 29, 2018, page 6a Jim Musgrove, 77, of Prescott, Arizona, passed away on April 15, 2018, at his home, surrounded in love and leaving behind his wife, Myra, of 51 years; his son, Blaine (fiancé Heather); his sister, Donna Hazelton; and several other family members. He was born in Prescott on Aug. 25, 1940, to his parents Orville and Wilma (Emmons) Musgrove. Jim was a graduate of Prescott Senior High School in 1958, a graduate of the University of Arizona in 1962 and a graduate of the University of Arizona College of Law in 1965. He was a member of the Sigma Chi social and Phi Delta Phi honorary fraternities. Jim loved his Family, his Friends, his “Pals” and Brothers, his Country, Arizona and Prescott. He was proud of his Law Firm, his Partners and all who served there; he was also one of the few members of the State Bar Association for more than 50 years. He was a Master Gardener and created beautiful gardens at his home. He also served with the Arizona National Guard Military. In 1971 to 1972, Jim was Legislative Assistant to Sen. Paul Fannin in Washington, D.C., and was responsible for many good things for Arizona during that time. Jim also served several charities and organizations in Prescott throughout his lifetime: his favorite, however, were the organizations that help the kids; he would want anyone who would so wish to give of their time, their talents and their money to support them. You could say his legacy was simply that one could never ask for a better friend or advocate when needed in Jim Musgrove. Jim will be sorely missed. A Celebration of his Life will be held in late August. “All of us must die eventually. Our lives are like water spilled out on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. But God does not just sweep life away; instead, he devises ways to bring us back when we have been separated from him.” Arrangements entrusted to Hampton Funeral Home.
