Former Chief Deputy for the Ionia County Sheriff’s Department, James Jason 
Mustaine passed away peacefully in his home on Feb 13, in Ft. Pierce, Fla. at 
the age of 83.

Born in Lansing April 4, 1929, to James and Geraldine Mustaine, he joined the 
Army at a young age, falling into the Army Air Corps, eventually working on the 
Mercury and Apollo space programs. During his enlisted time, he married 
Virgilene Wiggins. They had three children, Leona, Crystal and Winona.

After retiring from the Air Force, Jim moved his family to Michigan and began a 
promising career with the Ionia County Sheriff’s Department, working his way to 
Chief Deputy for Sheriffs William Bensinger and Terrence Jungle. Upon retiring 
from the Ionia County Sheriff’s Department, Jim and Virgie moved back to 
Florida, where Virgie passed; and he married her sister, Velma Wiggins, thus 
inheriting three more children, Jim, Penny and Cindy. 

He is survived by two brothers, Bruce Mustaine (Elsie) from North Carolina and 
Phillip Mustaine (Phyllis) from Michigan; all his children; and several 
grandchildren, great-grandchildren. He is preceded by his two wives, Virgilene 
and Velma; sister, Laney Mustaine; and brother, Maurice Mustaine from Orleans.
