James Lloyd Breedlove

Jim Breedlove, 84, of Moxee passed away Saturday, June 6, 2026, after a short battle with cancer. Jim grew up in Texas, following high school he joined the Navy. While serving aboard the USS St. Paul which was used in the film in Harms Way he had an appearance blowing taps.

Jim met Fay Ferguson in California, and they married in Long Beach in March 1966. Following the Navy Jim went to broadcast school which led to his move to Seattle. Jim took a job doing TV sports in Yakima, WA and he fell in love with the area. Jim moved from TV to Radio. He enjoyed playing cowboy with the Wenas Saddle Club and Honky Tonking on Saturday nights at the Wagon Wheel, always up for the new adventure. Jim & Fay opened the Cosmic Cowboy in Selah and sold Western wear for 5 years.

Then came a son Travis and in 1979, they purchased an old farmhouse in Moxee and Jim began transforming their pasture into a park. Following retirement, the work on the park became his job and its evolution was a constant interest and amusement to his neighbors and passersby.

He is survived by wife Fay and son Travis and will be missed by his many friends.

At his request there will be no services. In lieu of flowers memorials can be made to the Union Gospel Mission or Cancer Society.
