James L Harmon

James Lester Harmon, age 93, of Toledo, passed away on October 14, 2020 after the death of his second wife this summer left him with a broken heart. He was born on February 24, 1927 to Clement and Mary (Howard) Harmon. Jim served in the army for 3 years and was part of Company A 501 Parachute Infantry as a paratrooper. He was a loving provider for his family and worked tirelessly at Jeep for 38 years. He started running when he was 40 and ran for the Toledo Road runners from 1967-1984. He ran over 25 marathons during that time. He was very giving and always willing to help others in need. Jim will be deeply missed by his friends and family and all those who knew him. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his first wife Helen Mae Harmon of 45 years, second wife Norma Harmon of 28 years, his son James Harmon Jr, and sisters Doris Meyer and Sharon Ray. Left to cherish his memory are his children Pamela Stanton (Jim), Timothy Harmon (Rosie), and David Harmon, fifteen grandchildren, multiple great grandchildren and his younger brother Howard Harmon (Emily). There will be no visitation. Graveside services only will be held Saturday at 12 Noon at Toledo Memorial Park. Condolences may be shared with the family at walkerfuneralhomes.com
