Born on July 6, 1928, to Julian & Ivy Seale, James was a devoted husband to Grace, who predeceased him; father of Scott Seale, Patricia Seale and Michelle Seale Wisnia; proud grandfather of Courtney Seale, Jamie Seale Wisnia and Julia Seale Wisnia, and father-in-law of Frank Ippolito and Howard Wisnia. Jim was an avid news and fact gatherer, a chess player, piano player, New York Times crossword puzzler and Sudoku solver, and friend to animals, as was Grace. He was also a consistent, miles-a-day walker, never wanting to stay still for long. Jim will be remembered for his questions about trivia and obscure, but interesting facts, and his old-time jokes and songs.
