Obituary of James B. Waterston
Please share a memory of James to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
South Pasadena, FL:
James B. Waterston, 68, formerly of North Creek, passed away suddenly on December 13, 2015.
Born on September 16, 1947 in Glens Falls, NY, he was predeceased by his parents Erla and Colin Waterston.
He is survived by his sister Jean (Bob) Place of Fairport; nephew and niece, Spencer and Lucy Place; aunts Evelyn Houghton and Hulda Waterston (Mrs. Waterston subsequently passed on January 4th, 2016.); and many wonderful cousins who all knew him as Jimmy.
A graduate of Johnsburg Central School Class of 1965 and of the Mohawk Valley Community College nursing program in 1969, Jim was a nurse for many years at various facilities—Albany Medical Center, Adirondack Tri-County Nursing Home, and Bellevue Hospital in New York City. In later years in Florida, he worked in customer service for the Xerox Corporation and then GE.
Jim will best be remembered for his artistic talents, dry wit, flair for decorating and love of everything British. He particularly enjoyed the company of his best friends Larry and Skeeter, his cousins, and his classmates from Johnsburg.
To celebrate Jim’s life, family and friends are invited to a mass that will be held on Saturday, January 30th, at 11:00 a.m. at St. James RC Church, Main Street, North Creek, NY with Fr. John O’Kane officiating.
