James Michael Joachim Obituary
With solemn reverence, we commemorate James Michael Joachim (Baraboo, Wisconsin), whose life came to an end on April 19, 2024 at the age of 73, leaving behind cherished memories. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of James Michael Joachim to show support.
As we bid adieu to James' earthly form, let us not dwell on the void left in his wake, but rather celebrate the legacy of love and inspiration James has bequeathed us. For though he may have departed from our sight, his spirit remains a timeless beacon, guiding loved ones through the labyrinth of life's journey.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Michael Joachim and Laura Joachim (Gurgel). He is survived by: his brother Steve Joachim of Virginia Beach, VA; his niece Sara; his nephew Zachary; and his caregiver Charlotte Campbell of Baraboo. He is also survived by numerous cousins and friends.
He waited for 18 months to make an appointment, then due to COVID delays, was unable to be diagnosed and scheduled for surgery until the cancer had already progressed to the point that surgery resulted in an inability to swallow whole food or speak clearly.
He also had close ties and felt particularly thankful to the members of his Parkinson's and AA support groups in Baraboo.
