Dr. James Franklin "Jim" Alexander
August 31, 1935 - June 26, 2017

Dr. James Franklin “Jim” Alexander, 81, of Round Rock and formerly of Pampa, died June 26, 2017 in Round Rock.

Memorial services will be at 10:00 AM on Saturday, July 1, 2017, at St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church in Pampa, with The Rev. Charles Smith, officiating. Private burial will be in Fairview Cemetery in Pampa, under the direction of Carmichael-Whatley Funeral Directors of Pampa.

Dr. Alexander was born August 31, 1935 in Little Rock, Arkansas, to Jessie Franklin and Lucy Margaret Wilcox Alexander. He married Sarah Nell White on June 9, 1972 in Pampa. Dr. Alexander owned and operated his own dental practice for 53 years, from 1961 until 2013. He truly loved his work and cared about his patients and office staff. He was a man of integrity, was loyal, and dependable. He was an active member of St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church where he was a junior warden and flipped many pancakes over the years at the Pancake Supper. He had been a resident of Pampa since 1963, moving to Round Rock in 2013.

Jim loved to snow ski, play golf with his golf buddies, and to visit the family cabin in Eagle’s Nest, NM. He also loved spending time with friends and family. Jim was quite the character, known for his colorful vocabulary and quick wit. Whether hunting/fishing or at a church function, his personality never varied. No one could walk away from an encounter with Jim without being touched by his humor and authentic spirit.

Survivors include his wife, Sarah Alexander of the home; one daughter, Maria McGoldrick of Cleora, Oklahoma; one son, Mark Alexander of New Castle, Colorado; two stepdaughters, Casey Robinson of Round Rock, and Carrie Kotara of Hailey, Idaho; one stepson, Greg Carter of Round Rock; a brother, Jerry P.

Memorials may be made to St. Matthews Episcopal Day School, 727 W. Browning, Pampa, Texas, 79065, or to a favorite charity.
