Mass of Christian Burial at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Eldora, with Father Kevin Earleywine officiating. Inurnment in St. Mary’s Catholic Cemetery in Eldora, with military honors. James William Pagel was born on August 9, 1930, in Eldora, to his parents Harry and Bernice (Haney) Pagel. He attended and graduated from Eldora High School with the class of 1949, holding the record for the 880 (half-mile.) He was married Rita Joan Saylor on September 6, 1951, at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Eldora. Jim enlisted in the National Guard upon graduation of high school, later, transitioning to active duty service in the Army in 1956. He served his country with honor and distinction for many years, being stationed across the world in notable locations such as Germany, Okinawa, New Jersey, Texas, Anchorage Alaska, El Paso, and North Carolina. Jim retired as a CWO3 after working his way up the enlisted ranks and left the army in 1976 after many years of faithful service to his country. After his retirement from military service, Jim and Rita returned to Eldora. Jim worked a number of jobs and officially retired after 10 years of service to the USPS. He was a man of many talents and possessed the hands and knack to create beautiful works of art from wood. Jim made anything from furniture to spoons for friends and family and enjoyed sharing his works of art with others. He was also an avid fisherman, traveling to many destinations including Mexico and Alaska looking to land “a keeper.” What was truly important to Jim though, was his family; Jim was a family man, working tirelessly to provide for them and make sure they were loved and cared for. He loved and cherished the time he was able to spend with his wife, children, and grandchildren. James is survived by his wife Rita of Eldora; children Harold (Pam) Pagel of Eldora, Linda (Dave) Dennis of Iowa Falls, Sue (Brent) Colvin of Eldora, and James William (Joyce Larson) Pagel Jr. of Liscomb; 11 grandchildren; many great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, son Rick, grandson Joshua, and sister Joan Klein. Picture and obituary from Abels Funeral and Cremation Service, Creps-Chapel, Eldora, Iowa
