James Ishmael “Jimmy” Orosco, age 70, passed from this life on Sunday, February 4, 2024 at Eastland Memorial Hospital in Eastland, TX. He was born on August 8, 1953 in Oak Harbor, WA to Santiago Jim Orosco and Neva Leone (Kelly) Orosco.
Jimmy was a retired veteran who proudly served our country in the United States Navy. He was well known and loved by many of his coworkers who remember him from his employment at Walmart in Eastland. During his employment, he met and made a lot of great friends. Jimmy was very protective over his siblings and was a loving brother with a huge heart. He had a great sense of humor and would give the shirt off his back to anyone in need. He enjoyed going to the gun range, and traveling, but found peace watching the sun set with his beloved dog “Lulu”, from his front porch in his quiet rural town where he resided.
Those left to cherish his memory are his six sisters: Mary, Anne, Sue, Carole, Ruth, and Elizabeth; three brothers: Mike, Bill and Gilbert; numerous nieces and nephews; many lifelong friends and the “Navy Seabees” with whom he served and his beloved dog: “Lulu”.
He is predeceased by his parents and his first wife, Vera and his latest wife, Lupe.
The family will be laying Jimmy to rest at California Central Coast Veterans Cemetery in Seaside, CA. Services to be announced. Arrangements are entrusted to Edwards Funeral Homen in Eastland.
