James Wilson Eddy II Obituary (1978 - 2023)

James Wilson Eddy II, 44, passed away on May 4, 2003. James was born December 16, 1978 in Ogden, Utah to James Gilbert and Annette Kari Eddy. James graduated from St. Joseph's Catholic High School in 1997. After graduation he attended Weber State University and Asbury College in Wilmore, Kentucky with an emphasis in History and Literature. James was always seeking a new adventure which led him to live in Chicago, China, and Mexico. James loved music and was known for finding some of the best bands and songs. His love of music pushed him to attend many concerts with friends and his older sister. Aside from music, James' other love was sports. You would always find him cheering on the Chicago Cubs, Chicago Bears and any Utah team. James loved to walk everywhere! It wasn't surprising to find him walking around downtown Ogden with his headphones and backpack on, often stopping into his favorite coffee shops for a chat. He will be remembered for his quick wit, warm heart, and love of board games. James was happiest when he was surrounded by his family and friends. The siblings wish to express their gratitude to everyone who has supported James throughout the years. It meant the world to him and us. James is survived by his siblings, Sarah Eddy, Esther Hamilton (Aaron), John Daniel Eddy (Pei Jun "Mandy" Cao); two nephews and a niece (Winston, Oscar and Mona); and many aunts, uncles and cousins. He is preceded in death by his parents and grandparents. A viewing will be held Thursday, May 11, 2023 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Myers Mortuary, 845 Washington Blvd., Ogden, Utah.
