It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our Vice Commodore, Mr. Jim Wells.
Jim passed away peacefully at home today. His battle with ALS was physically demanding and his reward in heaven is near. The Wells family appreciates all of your love and support.
The visitation will be held Sunday December 29 from 6-9 pm at Crowder Funeral Home in Webster (111 E. Medical Center Blvd.), with a Rosary at 7:30 p.m. The Requiem Mass will be said on Monday December 30 at 11:30 am, at Queen of Angels Catholic Church in Dickinson, TX (4100 Texas 3). Jim will be laid to rest at Mt. Olivet Catholic Cemetery at I-45 S. @ Hughes Rd., Exit 19, Dickinson, TX.
For those of you who didn't know Jim, he began sailing on Clear Lake with the Clear Lake Sailing Club in his first Daysailer. A few years later he competed in the CLRA Wed. Night Races with a few other CLSC sailors. Last year, he and Bob Hunkins bought their S2 10.3, Leopard and raced it in GBCA events last season. He and his wife, Janelle call League City their home and they have four grown children.
For me, Jim was my endless supporter of sustainability and promoting clean regattas. He was a smile and a positive spirit and the one that you 100% counted on. Rest In Peace sir. You influenced so many lives while living your best one.
