SOUTH GLENS FALLS
James E. Wallace, 76, passed away peacefully on Sunday, January 12, 2014 at Fort Hudson Nursing Home, surrounded by his loving family.
Born December 21, 1937 in Chestertown, NY, he was the son of the late Ernest and Lois (Sage) Wallace.
In 1955, Jim graduated from Chestertown High School, and also attended Adirondack Community College. On October 12, 1957, he married the love of his life, Madeline Hutter, when he was just 19 years old.

Jim enjoyed reading, construction projects, remodeling, and traveling.
In addition to his parents, Jim was predeceased by his brothers, David, Robert, and Gerald Wallace.
