Washington
June 9, 1941 – March 3, 2018
Mr. James Arthur Washington, the son of the late Ellen "Yaya" and Louis Washington, was born in Berkeley County, South Carolina on June 9, 1941.
On Saturday, March 3, 2018, at the White Oak Manor Nursing Facility in Charlotte, North Carolina, James went home to rest. He was 76 years old.
James received his education in Jamestown, South Carolina. As a young adult, he relocated to Brooklyn, New York where he married Audrey Green of Pamlico, North Carolina, who preceded him in death. The couple was blessed with one daughter, Ebony Washington.
While living in Brooklyn, James worked as a sanitation worker. After retiring, James and his daughter relocated to Charlotte, North Carolina.
James was a good neighbor and friend to all who knew him. While in Charlotte, he spent his time with his daughter watching westerns, playing dominos, and socializing at the Senior Center. James enjoyed listening to music and watching his favorite baseball team, the New York Yankees.
His fond memories will be cherished by: his loving and devoted daughter, Ebony Washington of Charlotte, NC; brothers, Harry Simmons (Bernice) of Charlotte, NC and Henry Washington of North Charleston, SC; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
