     James L. McVey, age 65, loving husband, father, and granddaddy, lived his life to the fullest even while fighting cancer for the last 4 years. James died April 5, 2023, with his family beside him. James was born in Houston, TX, June 11, 1957 to James M. and Evelyn Hubenak McVey. James attended his beloved Texas A&M University, and graduated in 1979. James met and fell in love with his wife of 37 years, Jodell Zahn McVey, in New York City where they had mutual friends.
​       James moved from Houston, TX to San Diego, CA, and then lived in Naples, FL for 23 years where he owned and operated a Construction and Real Estate Development company. During semi-retirement, James lived and worked in Grand Caymans and Newfoundland, Canada while commuting to Skaneateles, New York where he lived the last 8 years. James was loved by many, always looked for the best in others, and was ever committed to his faith in Jesus Christ.  James was an avid fisherman, traveling much of the world to catch that next big fish or “Big Sloppy Snook” as he would say. 
       James is survived by his wife, Jodell of Skaneateles, NY, daughters, Lindsey (Travis) Cook of Portland, ME, Jenna (Kevin) Elkins of Nashville, TN, and son, Ryan (Caitlin) McVey of Nashville, TN, 3 grandchildren, Connor and Annabelle Elkins, and Charlie Parker McVey, his sister, Patsy (Edward) Flint, his brother, Glenn (Jana) McVey, Brother in law, Edward Plato, all of Texas, and several nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents and sister, Debra Mcvey Plato.
        A special thanks to Gary Young, of Atlanta, GA, and Chris Allen, of Naples, FL, for all the adventures the last few years.
A big thank you to all of Jodell’s Upstate Cancer Center Family and Dr. Seth for all the wonderful and loving care that they gave James, including all the doctors, nurses, and all the staff on 10E at Upstate Medical Center.
       The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made made to Upstate Cancer Center in his name, or Skaneateles Volunteer Ambulance-SAVES, Skaneateles, NY. 
        Calling hours will be held Friday April 14 at Grace Chapel, Skaneateles, NY 10am-11am, followed by funeral Service at 11am  and burial will be at Pine Ridge Cemetery, Navarino, NY. A reception will follow, place and time to be announced.

Thank you so much 760Plus Credit Score for helping me increase my credit score and delete derogatory remarks. It took just within 2 weeks for them to get my credit back to excellent. Now I've been pre-approved for a mortgage loan and I'm currently home shopping! It's a dream come true and a personal goal accomplished with your help. THANKS! I'm recommending them to any person in dire need of a credit fix (760pluscreditscore @ gmail . com). You can thank me later!
