James R. Loveland (Jim) went to be with his Lord and Savior July 26, 2025. He was a graduate of South High School, class of '58. He worked in the tool and die industry for over 40 years before his retirement. He loved fastpitch softball, golf, camping, fishing, dog shows, and hanging out with friends. Most of all, he loved his family.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Marianne (Riegling), as well as his first wife, Linda (Vroonland); his parents Ralph and Edna; and siblings Tom, Barb, and Bob. He will be lovingly remembered by his children Nancy (Bryan), Patti (Daren), and David (Trina); four granddaughters; and one great-grandson. He was their hero, and they will miss him dearly. He will also be remembered by his brother-in-law, Doug Taylor; sister-in-law, Carrie Loveland; and many friends.
There will be a celebration of life for both Jim and Marianne from 1-3 p.m., Sunday, September 14, 2025, at Boulder Ridge Clubhouse, 4370 Pingree St., Allendale, MI 49401. The family welcomes memories and messages at www.cookcaresgrandville.com in their guestbook online.
