James I. "Jim" Gould, Streator, IL—James I. "Jim" Gould, 73, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, December 18, 2024, leaving behind a community in grief. Jim, a beloved husband to Jacquelin "Jackie" Gould, spent 26 years with his wife and was known for his kindness, loyalty, and positive spirit.
Jim proudly served his country in the United States Army National Guard and was a familiar face at the Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars, where he enjoyed spending time with friends. His love for the Green Bay Packers and trains added to his endearing character, making him a cherished figure among his family and friends.
The sudden loss has left the Gould family in a difficult position, as they were unprepared for the financial burden of funeral expenses. In an effort to help with these costs, a fundraiser has been set up by Emily Hinz, with donations going directly to Jackie. So far, $20 has been raised, with more expected in the coming days.
During this sorrowful time, the community continues to show support, with heartfelt messages of sympathy pouring in. Jim’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him, and his legacy as a loving husband, friend, and patriot will never be forgotten.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Jacquelin and the Gould family during this incredibly difficult time. May Jim’s soul rest in peace.
