Jimmy D. Stacy

Jimmy D. Stacy, 76, of Ravenna, passed away on March 7, 2026, at University Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. Born on July 9, 1949, in Dwarf, Kentucky, to the late Robert Lee and Louvernia (Noble) Stacy, Jim lived most of his life in Ravenna. A veteran of the US Army who served in Vietnam, he retired from the Chrysler Corporation in Twinsburg after 30 years of service. He was a longtime member of First Freedom Baptist Church.

Jim was an avid hunter in his younger years, often spending time in the field with his father-in-law and friends. He had a deep passion for cars, especially Dodges, and cherished working on them alongside his sons. In his quieter moments, he enjoyed gardening and relaxing by the fire with his closest friends, Rich and Chuck. Above all, his greatest joy came from his faith in Jesus and the time he spent with his wife, children, and grandchildren, who brought light to his life each time they walked through the door.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by great-grandchildren James and Charlie and siblings Noah Stacy, Helen Combs, and Mary Elswick. He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Janice F. (Montgomery) Stacy, whom he married on August 24, 1985; his children, Jason Garvin, Lambranee Jacobs, James Stacy, Kelly English, and Robert Stacy; his grandchildren, Taylor, Arian, Trey, Michael, Regan, Allissia, and Jaxon; his great-grandchildren, Kyrah, Kai'ren, and Londyn; and his siblings, Dicy Stacy, Silas Stacy, Billy Stacy, Herb Stacy, Charlie Stacy, Arlie Stacy, and Larry Stacy.
