Jim Bogue dedicated over five decades of service to Members 1st Credit Union, leaving a lasting impact on the organization and its members. Beginning his volunteer work on the Supervisory Committee in 1969, he served diligently until 1981, at which point he transitioned to the Board of Directors, where he continued his leadership and guidance for over 40 years. His unwavering commitment and deep-rooted belief in the credit union philosophy of "people helping people" fueled his volunteer efforts with Members 1st. A retired Postmaster from the U.S. Postal Service, Jim’s strong work ethic and dedication to his community were evident in every aspect of his service.

Jim, a lifelong resident of Shasta County since 1938, passed away on August 19, 2024, at the age of 87. He is survived by his loving significant other, Mary Wilburn, and a large, devoted family, including his stepchildren, 23 grandchildren, 39 great-grandchildren, and 4 great-great-grandchildren. His presence and contributions to Members 1st Credit Union, as well as the community he cherished, will be deeply missed. His legacy of service and generosity will continue to inspire those who had the privilege of knowing him.
