James B. Milberger, 87, of Wheelock, went to be with his Lord on Friday, October 25, 2013. Private family interment will be in Wheelock Cemetery. James was born in Wheelock, Texas, to the late Emma (Scasta) and Vince Milberger. He graduated from Franklin High School and served his country proudly with the U.S. Army. While he served many tours, moving every two to three years, some of his favorite assignments were at Fort Sam Houston, TX, Frankfurt, Germany, and Tapei, Taiwan.

On April 30, 1949, he married Helen F.

James spent his life loving and caring for his wife, Helen and providing for his family. He was proudly independent, a faithful servant to the service of his country and proved to be undauntedly resilient during the later years of his life.
