Stanley

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of James J. Stanley on Sunday, May 4, 2025, just 54 hours after receiving the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.

Jim was born in Columbia, Tenn., to the late Paul and Rosa Mae (Bell) Stanley on June 25, 1938.

He graduated from Butler High School and worked for R.W. McDonald and Sons in Butler, from the age of 16 until he retired in 1991. That was when Jim married his wife, Barbara Jo (Magdy), and relocated to Garden City, S.C. They then moved to Conway, S.C., in 1999.

Jim is survived by his wife, Barbara Jo Stanley; children, Paul Stanley and Jim (Carol) Stanley, Paul Lampo II (Lori), Dr. Nicole Lampo (Huss Fennell III); and his grandchildren, Brennan, Preston, Paige, Haisley and Paul John Lampo III (Jack). His last remaining sibling, Charles “Sonny” Stanley lives in Raleigh, N.C.

In addition to his parents, Jim was preceded in death by his sisters, Hilda and Evelyn.

He was a private man with great integrity who will leave a big hole in many hearts.

STANLEY — Per his wishes, no services will be held for James J. Stanley, who died Sunday, May 4, 2025.

A dog lover since birth, Jim would like donations in his name to go to a Humane Society of your choice.

BURROUGHS FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION SERVICES, Murrells Inlet, S.C., is assisting the family.
