WARREN — James (Jim) Richard Ambrose passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, Dec. 26, 2020, at the age of 68 from an extended illness.
Jim was born on Sept. 28, 1952, in Warren, to David J. and Betty Powell Ambrose.
One thing that made his spirit whole was his love and friendship with his wife of 47 years, Laurie Barna Ambrose, who has been by his side since they were teenagers, and his children: daughter, Brandi Ambrose (Brian Racine) of Chicago, Ill., and his son, Todd James Ambrose (Melany Ambrose) of Canfield.
Jim also leaves behind two siblings, David Ambrose of Warren and Nancy Ambrose of Livingston, Mont., each of whom Jim has always looked up to; and three grandchildren, Madelynn Ambrose (17), Liam Racine (11) and Tillie Racine (6) who affectionately called him “their Pupa.”
