James Anthony Duley, age 65 of Tampa, Florida went to be with his Lord and Savior on March 18, 2022, after a difficult surgery and multiple health issues. James was born on September 5, 1956, the son of Alabelle Goodwin and John Duley.

James is preceded in death by his parents, half-sisters, Brenda Walton and Sharon Gambrel; half-brothers, Walter Goodwin and Clinton “Bub” Goodwin. He is survived by his half-sisters, Charlotte Lurker and Linda Dickens; 3 sons; and many nieces and nephews.

He was a 1975 graduate of Mt. Vernon High School, an avid Cleveland Browns, and NASCAR fan. He enjoyed taking many cruises with his friends from Florida and spending time on Facebook reconnecting with family and friends.

The family wants to send a special thanks to Advent Health Tampa for the excellent care they showed James the last days of his life.
