James Paul Korf, 75, passed away suddenly in the early morning hours on July 27, 2013.
He was born Nov. 1, 1937.
Jim is survived by his brother, Richard (Diane) Korf; children Malena Korf Johnson of Grand Marais, Nina Oullis (nee Korf) of Grand Marais, James Korf Jr. of Duluth, Clea Korf (Tom) Zeis of St. Paul, Andrew Korf (Melissa Heer) of St. Paul; grandchildren Yarrow Korf, Austin Oullis, Cody Johnson, Drew Johnson, Davis Zeis and Aurora Zeis; and great-grandchildren Jake Korf, Louis Oullis and Aysha Korf.
Jim’s lasting legacy will be his incredible works of art that are in the homes and landscapes in Chicago, Grand Marais, Alaska, Canada and a myriad of other places.
There will be a memorial gathering in Grand Marais at a date and time to be announced soon. The family’s hope is to honor his life’s work with a showing of his art at that time. To include your painting or other art piece in this showing contact cleakorf@gmail.com or malena@boreal.org
