  James A.L. Mariani 
  
  YUCCA VALLEY, CA James A.L. Mariani, 72, passed away July 19, 2011, at Hi-
  Desert Continuing Care in Joshua Tree. James was born February 28, 1939, at 
  Good Samaritan Hospital in Lebanon. His parents were James A.L. Mariani Sr. 
  and Evelyn Mae Nye Mariani of Annville. James grew up in the Annville area and 
  graduated from Annville High class of 1957. After graduation, he moved with 
  his family to Compton, Calif., where James made many friends whom he was still 
  close to until his death. During James' lifetime, he enjoyed the best of 
  California by living and working near the beaches of Long Beach, Huntington 
  Beach, Anaheim and Grover Beach, where he was employed as an orderly. He would 
  later enjoy living near the woods in Burney, where he managed an olive farm 
  shop. He had several friends who all enjoyed many fun times camping in the 
  Mount Shasta area. After getting snowed in one too many times, he decided to 
  move to the warm desert of Joshua Tree, where friends raved of the desert 
  beauty. He worked at Hi-Desert Medical Center in food services for a time 
  before managing the west-end Del Taco in Yucca Valley in the late '80s. Jim's 
  final job before becoming disabled was at Pace (now Sam's Club) in Cathedral 
  City. He loved his jobs and the people he came in contact with. He loved to 
  dance, bowl, play all board games, watch the old movies, play with his pets 
  and party with friends. Jim was also an avid crafter, especially working with 
  plastic canvas. He always enjoyed showing his handiwork at the Christmas craft 
  shows. His sunny disposition and teasing way will be missed by all who knew 
  him. Jim was preceded in death by his parents, James and Evelyn Mariani; his 
  brother, John Mariani; and his dear friend, Donald Dougal. His survivors are 
  his wife, Mary Rochelle Mariani; his brother, Joseph Mariani; and an aunt, 
  uncles, and cousins in California and Pennsylvania. Rose Mortuary was in 
  charge of his final arrangements and at Jim's request, to ease our pain, no 
  services were held. "I loved you then, I love you still. I always have and I 
  always will," so goodbye my love for now.
