James L. Brittain, 75, of Warrenton passed away on April 12, 2022. Jim was born on January 19, 1947, in New Madrid, MO, the son of Jessie H. Brittain and Edna (Dye) Brittain.
Jim was a loving, caring man with a big heart. He was a selfless man. Jim loved his family, and most of all, he enjoyed being together at any occasion - especially the family reunions. In his younger years, Jim enjoyed racing his ’55 Chevy, fishing, and loved fish fry’s. Jim was a long-time truck driver. He will forever be known as the favorite uncle, undisputed champ of the Walmart Knockout.
