• Notes

  James Leroy "Binger" Uebinger, age 78, passed away at 7:55 p.m. Tuesday, January 20, 2015, at home, surrounded by his family. Jim was born in Wendelin on April 19, 1936, and married Donna Lee on June 3, 1956, in a ceremony at her parent's home in Flora. During his lifetime, Jim owned three Flora-area businesses: Uebinger's Shell Service Station, Jim Uebinger Trailer Sales, and Uebinger's Home Furnishings. Jim was always the ultimate "car man." He liked to look at cars, talk about cars, and especially loved to drive cars (always too fast in his younger days.) Jim was a Christian and a member of the First Baptist Church of Flora. Jim is survived by his wife: Donna Uebinger; children: Brad Lee Uebinger; Shari (Jeff) Harvey, and James Brent (Tammy) Uebinger; stepfather: Leo Smith; brothers: Richard (Golda) Cunningham, David (Nancy) Briscoe; sisters: Sue (Bing) Lowe, and Marie Browning; sister-in-law: Ruby Warren; and brother-in-law: Bob (Marie) Lee; four grandchildren: Brandi (Danny) Brown, Trenton Harvey, Shannon (John) Hurliman, Rylee Uebinger, and Elizabeth Williams; five great-grandchildren with a 6th one "on the way"; and many nieces and nephews. He counted the members of the McDonald's coffee drinkers among his special friends. A funeral service for Jim Uebinger was held at Frank & Bright Funeral Home in Flora at 12 Noon on Saturday, January 24, 2015. Interment followed in Floral Garden of Memories Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family requested giving to a college fund for Rylee Uebinger or First Baptist Church of Flora.
