James Francis HalenCedar CityJames (Jim) Francis Halen a.k.a. PaPa, passed away on February 18, 2017 from complications of pneumonia with his loving family at his side. Jim was born on February 2, 1932 to Russell and Gladys Halen in Southern California.Being an enterprising young man, Jim had a paper route, cleaned horse stalls and trained horses to support his own horse, Ginger. Jim's love of flying began as a young Marine flying jets in Korea during the war. This love of flying turned into a 36-year career with United Airlines. Jim's other passion was 4-part harmony which led him to join The Barbershop Harmony Society as a young teenager. Throughout the years, he directed many barbershop choruses and sang in numerous quartets.Jim had a great sense of humor. He was blessed with many family and friends who loved him and he will always be remembered. He is survived by his wife of 25 years, Chris, along with 7 children, 28 grandchildren, 8 great-grandchildren and 1 sister.A private family celebration of life was held for Jim at Southern Utah Mortuary on February 20, 2017. A Memorial at Christ the King Catholic Church will be held at a later date. It is with heavy hearts we say goodbye, but we know he is flying the heavenly skies and directing the Angels' choir.
