James Arthur Wilson

James Arthur Wilson, 55, of La Grande, died Sept. 10 at his home. Services will be held at a later date.

Jimmy was born March 4, 1955, in La Grande, the only child of Arthur and Carolyn Mae (Walker) Wilson. He attended schools in La Grande and was employed at Skippers and an antique store.

Because he cared about those in need, he became a certified nurse assistant and worked at Valley View Care Center. Jim spent his entire adult life caring for his mother in their home until she died in 1998.

Jimmy enjoyed watching and collecting movies and having lunch with his stepmother, Donna Wilson.

Surviving are his uncle and aunt, Oren and Linda Walker of Hermiston; stepmother, Donna Wilson of La Grande; and two cousins.

He was preceded in death by his parents, grandparents, and his uncle, Charles Walker.
