James Michael Fields

James Michael Fields was welcomed into the arms of his Lord and Savior Jesus on June 27, 2023. The long battle now over. Only peace remains. Heavenly family members greeting James included his dear grandparents Rose Chinchar and Carl Roddy, his cousin, Douglas Samnik, and his sister-in-law, Alyse Compton. All of Heaven is rejoicing in James' faithful journey completed. James was born October 17, 1987, to Kathleen and Brian Fields. Elder brother to Christopher (Shanda) Fields, Jalen Fields, Halle Fields, DeAndre Fields, and Bryson Fields. Elder brother, also, to Josh Compton, Trinity (Evan) Ruschman, Gloria Compton (Noah Corlett), Ben Compton, Olivia Compton, Cody Compton, and Lily Compton. James leaves his dearly beloved Kailei, and his little Lights, Tyrese and Soraya, his most precious possessions, in the care of family and friends. So many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins, also, will be comforted by the many loving memories to share with each other and the coming generations. James, Oh, how he loved having a reason for get-togethers at home, grilling for family, playing music, dancing, and making the best burgers. Good times brought out his unabashed, infectious laugh and scratch of his head! James leaves a legacy of deep love, hard work, and sacrifice to inspire all he knew. He would want each of you to know that you are loved. A funeral service will be held at 11am on Friday, July 7, 2023, at Chapel United Methodist Church in Madison, OH with burial to follow at Fairview Memorial Park in Madison, OH. Visitation will be from 2-4pm & 6-8pm on Thursday, July 6, 2023, at the church. Services entrusted to the Potti & Marc F. Burr Funeral Homes of Chardon, Painesville, Madison & Fairport Harbor.
