James F. Carey, 85, passed away on Jan 26, 2022 in Fort Wayne. He was the owner and operator of Jim Carey Auto for 43 years and a past member of Broadway Christian Church. Jim was truly blessed with an outgoing personality as "his friends were many, and his enemies few". He could be put in a room with a complete stranger and ten minutes later have a friend for life. Jim was known for being a workaholic and never became tired of giving to others. Many customers with disabilities became recipients of vans at no profit, and no negotiation. Coho fishing and sharing his boat with friends on Lake Michigan was a near perfect getaway. He leaves behind his wife, Susie; daughters, Lorena (Ron) Uplinger, and Kassie (Chris) Fisher; twin grandsons, Rick and Ryan; twin granddaughters, Sara and Amy; grandsons, Tyler and Landen; and many wonderful extended family members. Jim was preceded in death by his daughter, Jeanie; and parents, Pauline Dunton and Rex Carey. Service is 4:00 pm, Sunday, February 6, 2022 at Fairhaven Funeral Home and Cremation Services, 6557 N. Clinton St., with calling two hours prior beginning at 2:00 pm. Memorials may be made to Broadway Christian Church or the Salvation Army. To sign the online guestbook, go to www.fairhavenfortwayne.com
