Celebrating the life of Alfred James "Jim" Bunn

It is with heavy hearts, but the knowledge and hope of eternal life in Jesus Christ, that we share the passing of Alfred James "Jim" Bunn, age 84, on February 8, 2025 in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. Jim was born in Denver, Colorado, on May 1, 1940.  He joined the Navy at 17 years old. When he returned to Colorado, he met Zenamae Frederick while cruising on Colfax. Jim’s love, Zenamae, preceded him in death. They were married for 58 years and had three, cherished children: Bradley Bunn, Tracy (Bob) Brooks and Michael (Julie) Bunn. He was a proud grandfather to Dominick (Andrea) deVall, Zachary deVall, Brittney (Daniel) Rietveld, Cooper Bunn, Eleanora Bunn and was blessed with two great-grandchildren, Brooks and, his namesake, James. Jim was blessed with an extended family that loved him.

Jim worked in the sporting goods industry as a manufacturer's representative for companies such as Nike, Brooks Shoes, Wigwam and Umbro.  As a devoted Broncos fan, after retirement, he took a part-time job at the Broncos Team Store at Empower Field. In his free time, he enjoyed spending time with his family and sharing adventures with them through traveling, boating, sailing, cross-country skiing, bowling, and many other family activities.

A celebration of his life will be held at his church, Faith Church Arvada, in the outside Prayer Chapel located at 6225 Wright Street, Arvada, CO 80004 on the west side of Wright Street, Thursday, March 20, 2025 at 10:00 a.m..  Interment will be at Ft. Logan Cemetery, Friday, March 21 at 2:00 p.m. 

We are blessed to know that he is with his Lord and Savior and his precious Zenamae, and take comfort in the scripture: "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live." (John 11:25 ESV).
