James Bippus (163015619)
Suggested edit: I believe James R. Bippus has been interred in Wakeman Cemetery, in Waterville, Ohio. Currently, there is only the memorial photo marking the location, which is in Lot 485, 3rd Addition, Sect. H5, Row 10. I will update the information as soon as possible.
James Richard Bippus passed away on Thursday, December 24, 2020 in Waterville Ohio, at the age of 93. Born November 18, 1927 in Toledo Ohio to Alfred and Helen Bippus, Jim loved life and was a person of strong faith in God. His wife Barb, his children and grandchildren were very dear to him.
Jim was an Army veteran and graduated with a business degree from Kent State University where he was a member of Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity. Jim followed in his uncle and father's footsteps with a career in dental equipment sales. He was a salesman for over 50-years starting with Ransom & Randolph in 1950. Jim worked with a variety of dental supply companies, made wonderful relationships with dentists and professional friends in the business throughout Ohio and southern Michigan, and continued selling independently until 91-years of age.
Jim met his first wife Ethel Jule Phipps, married in 1952, had five children and moved several times throughout Ohio. Upon her death in 1969, Jim continued living in Toledo Ohio. He later met and married Barbara Parker in 1973, where they combined families and lived in South Toledo, later moving to Waterville Ohio, where they resided for 24-years.
Jim had passion for music and was a baritone soloist throughout his life. Jim sang in his college fraternity men's group, the Singers Club of Cleveland, church choirs (including Monroe St. United Methodist church, St. Michaels in the Hills, and Sylvania Methodist Church), specialty choirs such as the David Carter Symphonic Choir, as well as many other performances, productions, weddings and funerals. Jim could talk endlessly about his memories of his performances as 'Noah' & 'Elijah'.
Fishing, traveling, Ohio State football and his flower gardens were some of his strong passions in life. Jim was always surrounded by 'EVERYTHING' Ohio State, from his clothes, to flags on the house, to his doorbells that played the OSU fight song. If you were from Michigan, Jim gave you quite the razzing! He loved to fish and had many stories and photos of his fishing adventures, mostly with family. Jim also loved to travel including taking the family camping across the country, international travel with his lovely wife, and frequent trips to South Padre Island to get out of the cold weather. He was blessed with many close friends and was known for his good sense of humor.
Jim is survived by his wife Barbara E. Bippus of 47 years of Waterville, Ohio; his son Edward A. Bippus (Pam) of Austin, Texas; his daughter Susan M. (Bippus) Martin of Maumee Ohio; his daughter Barbara J. Papke (Walt) of Drummond Island, Michigan; his daughter Diane L. Arndt (Andrew) of Bristol, Wisconsin; and stepdaughter Sharon L. Whaley (Dave) of Advance, North Carolina, grandchildren; Tiffany (Martin) Romstadt, Dustin Bippus, Sarah Whaley, Michael Roach, Ryan Martin, Lauren Bippus, Joel Whaley, Brittany (Bippus) McClary, Amanda (Papke) Mills, Courtney (Hall) Bryden, and Kaitlyn Hall, ten great-grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren. Jim is preceded in death by his infant son, Thomas R. Bippus; wife Ethel J. Bippus; stepson David W. Parker; sister Nancy J. Mytinger; and grandson Brendan S. Hall.
