James Mangum, Beloved Husband, Father, Brother, and Grandfather passed away on December 17, 2022, at age 69 in his sleep in his home. He graduated from Jordan High School in 1972 with awards from Football, Wrestling, Art, and Drama.

Family was the most important thing to him, but coffee was a close second, as he was one of nine children. He is survived by his wife Debbie and children, Sheryice, Raymond, and Victor. Grandchildren Tanner, Avery and Ray Jr. He spent his free time Camping, Fishing, and taking care of his yard and garden.

He spent 20+ years as a construction manager, working on many buildings throughout Utah. He loved making friends and family laugh. He was always able to be sunshine on a cloudy day. He will be missed very much.
