James Neff Obituary, Death – On Thursday, January 19, 2023, James Thomas Neff Jr., who was affectionately known as Jimbo by his family and friends, passed away and is now with our Lord and Savior.
The 18th of May, 1950 was the day when Jimbo was born in Leesville to his parents, Dr. James “Jim” T. Neff and Robbie “Bobbie” Lee Craft Neff. After settling down in the greater Houston region and starting a family there, he has called Leesville his home for the past 35 years.
His parents, Jim and Bobbie Neff, as well as his brothers, Mark Alan Neff, Michael Vaughn Neff, and Gary Steven Neff, all passed away prior to his passing. His children, James Lynn Neff and his wife Leslie, Lois Christine Jaime and her husband Darren, and Joyce Lee Schmutzer and her husband Andrew will always remember him. So will his grandchildren, Gabriel, Abigail, Megan, DJ, Willa, and Grayson; his great-grandchildren, Luke and Elana; his brother, Dr. Jerry Neff and his wife Laura; his sisters-in-law, Anna Jo Neff and Doris Neff; and his cherished niece.
A memorial service will be held at the First United Methodist Church in Leesville on Saturday, February 11, 2023, at 11:00 a.m., and it will be followed by a reception at the same location.
