James "Jimmy" S. Primerano

In Loving Memory of James “Jimmy” S. Primerano

James S. Primerano, age 45, passed away on March 4, 2025, in Bath, Ohio.

Precious son of Barbara Baxter (formerly Barbara Primerano) and the late Joseph D. Primerano; beloved younger brother of Michael J. Primerano; brother-in-law to Leila Primerano; and devoted uncle to Samuel M. Primerano.

Jimmy lived his life with a deep love for the outdoors. When he wasn’t working, he could often be found hiking, climbing, or traveling with his treasured golden retrievers, Bob and George. He was kind, caring, compassionate, and always willing to lend a helping hand.

In keeping with Jimmy’s wishes, cremation has taken place, and a private gathering for close family and friends will be held in an intimate outdoor setting to celebrate his life.

We invite all who knew and loved Jimmy to honor his memory in their own way — whether through a quiet moment of reflection, sharing stories, or performing an act of kindness in his name, such as supporting a no-kill animal shelter.

One of Jimmy’s final messages to his nephew was to live by the Golden Rule. He believed the world would be a much better place if more people chose kindness.

Be better. Do better. Be kind.
