  James E. Marks 
  
  ETTERS James Edward Marks, 81, passed away peacefully, Thursday, July 21, 
  2011, in the Harrisburg Hospital, surrounded by his loving family. Born in 
  1930, in Chicago, Ill., he was the son of Beatrice I. Marks. He was a 1947 
  graduate of William Penn High School of Harrisburg. He proudly served in 
  the28th Division of the Army during the Korean conflict. James was retired 
  from the American Can Company. He also worked at the York County Area Agency 
  on Aging and the Department of Environmental Resources. Jim was predeceased by 
  his granddaughter, Shannon L. Marks. Surviving are his loving wife of 58 
  years, Cynthia and their three sons, Jeff of Oberlin, Brad of Mechanicsburg, 
  Greg and his wife, Sherry of Palmyra, Greg's step-sons Casey Criswell, wife 
  Carrie Criswell, their two children, Savannah and Chase, and Jonathan Criswell 
  and his wife Nicol; sister-in-law, MaryLou Lane, her children, Stacy Tice and 
  Douglas Lane, and her grandchildren, Megan, Matthew and Molly. Also numerous 
  cousins and nieces. Jim was a devoted husband and father who enjoyed the 
  simple pleasures of life. He was an avid golfer, a crossword puzzler, was 
  knowledgeable of world history and a movie fan. Upon a request from his wife 
  for some help around the house he would simply reply with a twinkle in his eye 
  and a grin on his face, "I'm retired, you know." He would then proceed to 
  gather twigs from trees in the yard. As a war film fan, one of his favorite 
  lines was, "I'm going to get a transfer out of this outfit" when he didn't 
  quite get his way. That was Jamie, the pet name that Cynthia used. With great 
  sorrow, that request has finally been granted. He will be deeply missed by his 
  family, who will take great comfort in knowing that he has transitioned into 
  the arms of the Lord. There will be a private service held for close friends 
  and family. Memorial contributions may be made to the American Diabetes 
  Foundation.
