James Boxall, Sr. Obituary

James L "Buzzy" Boxall Sr of Gaithersburg Md passed away peacefully on Thursday August 28,2025. Buzzy was born February 6, 1946, in Gaithersburg Md to Thomas J and Blanch Virgina Boxall. He was preceded in death by his parents, his wife Ruthie Boxall, five sisters Louise Yankey, Shirley Boxall, Dorothy Ratliff, Bernice Allen, Edith Fink and one brother Butch Boxall. Buzzy leaves behind his son James L "Jimmy" Boxall Jr, daughter in law Gabrielle Tomlin Boxall, grandson Garrett James Boxall and great granddaughter Josephine "JoJo" Tomlin who affectionately called him her "Pap Pap". To know Buzzy was to love him, he was incredibly kind, amazingly funny, and extremely generous. To say he will be missed is a complete understatement.
