James Lambouris Memorial Fund

Donation protected

Hello everyone,

My significant other's father, James(Jim) Lambouris, passed away unexpectedly approximately November 25th, 2020. The loss of an unexpected loved one, without saying goodbye is absolutely devastating to his family. He lives on through his three daughters, Jordan, Taylor, and Erin which he sacrificed everything in his life for as a single father, and continued to provide kindness and guidance to all. He always wanted the best for his family. His priority in life was always his children and to provide for them. Jordan and her husband Spencer, continue his legacy with two granddaughters, Adelina and Bailey.

Jim was a founding father of the Sigma Pi fraternity at Oakland University, Michigan, and always valued his brotherhood, constantly caring for friends and ensuring to continue their relationships throughout life.

In addition, Jim was an avid gamer, playing MUME(Multi-users in Middle Earth),  since the early 1990s. Out of a total of 700k+ characters ever created in MUME, his accolades include Ugurz, his character reaching level 100. Only 12 characters so far have reached that maximum level, and it is to note that he did this all playing the hardest faction in game, Zaugurz. MUME will  honor him by retiring his characters, and currently is being decided how to continue to commemorate him as a NPC/tribute in game.  MUME is a game that helped contribute to the MMORPG genre, so from a gamer myself it is so great to learn how amazing he was in real life, and virtual reality. 

As we continue to have more facts about the details of Jim's death, I will continue to update and edit this post. I know this is a shock to many, and a difficult time so please feel free to reach out. In addition, if you have any stories and memories about Jim, please feel free to reach out to myself, Taylor, or Jordan on Facebook. We love learning more about this kind, compassionate man, who continues to touch more lives than we ever expected. James will be buried in a proper funeral in Clarkston, Michigan.

Lastly, please note any specifics of how you would like your donation to contribute, whether flowers for the funeral, the funeral process, a memorial fund for his two daughters and grandchildren, etc. Thank you for listening to just a flash of what a wonderful man's life.
