James "Jimbo" Thomas Feldschau Jr.

1954 ∼ 2018

James “Jimbo” Thomas Feldschau, Jr.

Born in Port Arthur, TX, December 8, 1954

James was a 1973 graduate of Port Neches-Groves High School.

He served his country for four years and was honorably discharged in 1980.

Following his discharge, he went to work for the US Postal Service.

He retired from the Postal Service after 30+ years.

He lived the remainder of his life in Port Neches. He loved riding in his Hummer, taking his 4-wheeler for rides and just sitting around his yard feeding and watching his ducks.

He is preceded in death by his father, James T. Feldschau, Sr., mother, Cora Mavis Feldschau, and brother, Roy Alvin Prothro.

He is survived by his brother, Charles “Ronnie” Feldschau of Port Neches; his sister, Sandra (Feldschau) Cutaia and brother-in-law, Ted, both of Port Neches; niece, Hannah Feldschau and fiance’, Tanner Breuer of Port Neches; sister-in-law, Bonnie Prothro of Warren; and niece, Carla McNeel of Warren. He is also survived by one great-niece, Jacey Mettlen, and two great-nephews, James Mettlen and Karson Tanner Brauer.

The family wishes to have a private service and cremation will follow at a later date. Anyone wishing to send a memorial in Jimbo’s memory, donations can be made to Buckner Children’s Village in Beaumont, TX.

Special thanks to the First Responders, Port Neches Fire Department, Port Neches Police Department, and EMS that worked so hard to help.

Dear BFF Sandra, It was because of Jimbo that I attended my first PNG pep rally and football game. Every time I hear the fight song I think back to that first pep rally. Jimbo holds a special place in our hearts, as does his camo jumpsuit. My kids thought he was super cool wearing his jumpsuit for Chirstmas, a true Jimbo tradition. His uniqueness and sense of humor will be missed. My deepest condolences to you, Ted, Ronnie and Hannah. Love and prayers to you all ~ Melinda
