James M. Bagosy

James M. Bagosy, 61, of Duryea, passed away on November 7, 2025, at the Wilkes-Barre General Hospital surrounded by his loved ones.  Born on October 1, 1964, he was the son of the late Peter and Jessie (Guyler) Bagosy.

Jim was a proud graduate of Coughlin High School in Wilkes-Barre. He recently retired from Golden Technologies in Duryea, where he was a dedicated and valued employee for over 30 years.  Jim was also a social member of the Duryea VFW Post 1227.

Jim had a heart of gold and was always willing to help anyone in need. A lifelong, die-hard Philadelphia Eagles fan, he also enjoyed collecting clocks, advertisement signs and model trains. When he wasn’t tinkering with his collections, you could find Jim at home cooking or smoking something delicious on his grill.

He is survived by his loving companion of five years, Linda Weitz of Duryea; Alan Weitz, Crystal Williams, Maria Orme and her husband Mike Orme.  He will be deeply missed by his dear friends James Demich, Chris Reedy, John George, and John Gula along with many beloved grandchildren and his beloved cat Sylvester.

Jim will be remembered for his kindness, sense of humor, and the love he shared with everyone fortunate enough to know him.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, November 14, 2025, at 6:30pm at Kiesinger Funeral Services, Inc., 255 McAlpine St., Duryea with Fr. Michael Bryant of Nativity of Our Lord Parish Church, officiating. Friends may call for visitation from 5:00pm until time of service.
