Obituary

James McCune Voris, 74, Wabash, Indiana, passed away on February 7, 2023, at Parkview Regional Medical Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Born on December 24, 1948, in Morrison, Illinois, James was the son of Glenn and Birdena (Rigby) Voris.

After graduating from Manchester High School in 1967, James attended college for one semester before joining the United States Army where he served in the Vietnam War. After returning home from duty, he entered the workforce. James worked at Scott’s Landscaping as well as in maintenance at Clear Creek Apartments, both in North Manchester, for many years. He was most recently employed at A & A Cleaning for ten years before retiring in 2011.

James lived an adventurous life that was filled with excitement. In the last few years he began writing about his life experiences. From his time in Vietnam to sailing to Australia with friends before getting caught in a hurricane, James’s life was never dull or boring.

The loving memory of James Voris will forever be cherished by his companion of ten years, Debra Sailors; two daughters; one brother; and one sister. James was preceded in death by his parents and brother, Cody Owen.

In keeping with James’s wishes, no services will be held.

For those that wish to honor the memory of James Voris, memorial contributions may be made to the American Diabetes Association, P.O. Box 7023, Merrifield, Virginia 22116.

The family of James Voris has entrusted McKee Mortuary with care and final arrangements.
