James Fotos, 86, U.S. Marine Veteran, Korean War. Loving companion of Helen Trippiedi and beloved husband of the late Ethel Fotos. Dear father of Kenneth (Lynda) Fotos. Proud grandfather of Jennifer (Dustin) Detwiler and Bryan (Amanda) Fotos. Brother of the late George (Lorraine) Fotos. Great Grandfather and uncle of many. One of his accomplishments that brought him great joy was becoming a Private Pilot. After leaving his career as a lithographer, he opened Jim’s Pilot and Gift Shop. It was not unusual for him to lock up and hang a sign on the door that said, “Gone Flying”. Wishing you blue skies and tailwinds Jim.
