James G. Munlin

James G. Munlin peacefully answered the Master’s call on Monday, May 27, 2019.  His life’s journey began on April 10, 1940, in Brooklet, Georgia.  He was the second of seven children born to the late Mr. and Mrs. Willie Lee Munlin.

“Jimmy”, as he was so fondly called, graduated from James Baldwin High School with the Class of 1958.  After graduating, he enlisted in the United States Navy.  He proudly served his country with great distinction for twenty-five years.  He retired as a Senior Chief Petty Officer.  Upon retiring from the Navy, he joined the civilian workforce.  In 1984, he was employed with Newport News and retired after twenty years of dedicated service.   

In 1969, he was joined in Holy Matrimony with the love of his life, the former Betty Fuller. This union was blessed with fifty years of happiness. Although they had no children, they loved their nephew, Antonio Fuller as if he was their own son.  He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him, but we find comfort in knowing, he is now resting in the arms of Jesus. He has now joined his Family in Heaven.

He was also preceded in death by his siblings, Hawkins. He leaves to cherish his precious memories, his beloved wife, Betty F. Munlin; his nephew, Antonio Fuller; a niece, Darvella Searey, of Philadelphia, PA; many in-laws; other nieces and nephews; the Fullers, who he called his family; and a host of other loving relatives, and many caring friends.

A funeral service, celebrating his life will be held at 1:00 p.m. Wednesday, June 5, 2019, at Whiting's Chapel with full military honors. Family and friends will assemble at the funeral home by 12:30 p.m. Mr. Munlin may be viewed from 11:00 a.m. until the hour of his service in the funeral home.
