Obituary For James A. "Jim" Hansen

As our family mourns the loss of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, uncle and cousin, we remember Jim Hansen in loving tribute. Jim entered into rest on December 4, 2017 after a 10-year struggle with Alheimzers. Born and raised in Oakland, CA, Jim graduated from Oakland Technical High School and Laney Technical College becoming a plumber with Local #384 for over 57 years; a craft he loved and excelled at. Jim was proud of his blood donations to the American Red Cross earning membership into the Ten-Gallon Club. He also served in the United States Marine Corp Reserves. Jim is survived by his wife of 55 years, Sandee, Daughter Lisa, Sons Michael (Rulynn) and Frank (Meredith) and his four adored granddaughters, Mackenzie, Emilee, Piper and Sophie. He was devoted to his family and participated in all activities and events: coaching CYO Basketball and Niles-Centerville Little League for many years. He was the ultimate volunteer leaving his legacy at Holy Spirit School and Church, Moreau Catholic High School and Silva Pediatric Clinic. He contributed countless hours of his time and skills. Always happiest helping others and expecting nothing in return. A private family memorial will be held in January.
