James Allen Kocinski

James Allen Kocinski passed away peacefully at his home on September 15, 2026, surrounded by members of his loving family.

He was born on April 11, 1941. After a courageous journey with heart failure, Jim entered into eternal rest, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and devotion to his family. Jim was the beloved husband of Susan Lynn Kocinski for 36 years. Together they shared a life filled with love, commitment, and treasured memories. He is survived by his children, Debbie Pett (Ron) and Rob Kocinski (Maily), as well as his extended family: Andrew Sica (Bridgett), Amy Lambert, Tim Sica (Dorothy), and many beloved grandchildren, including Austin (Amanda), Ashley (Luke), Amanda, Hayley (Mason), Brooklyn, Spencer, Autymn,  Dawn, Colin, Caleb, Colt, Kodiak, Angela, and Clara Sica. Great-grandkids: Izabella, Joe, Bentley, Maya, Kelly Ann, Kevin, Kassidy. 

Jim was preceded in death by his Mom, Dad, Sister, two brothers, and his beloved son Tom.

Jim wore his golden jacket from Century 21 with pride. He could always be found in nature, caring for animals, fishing, enjoying his property “Up North” and the many memories he made with friends and family throughout his years. His presence, wisdom, and quiet strength will be deeply missed by all who knew him. A celebration of life will be in Spring 2027.  (Details to follow)

Though our hearts grieve his passing, we are thankful for the time we shared with Jim and the lasting impact he made on those who loved him.
