James "Jamie" Louis Kleim of Baltimore, Maryland passed away on May 15, 2022. He was 68 years old. Jamie was the beloved son of the late Lorine (nee Graham) and James Louis O'Donnell Kleim; cherished husband of Kimberly (nee Roberts) Kleim; devoted father of James "Jesse" William Kleim and Nicole Parr and her husband Jon; loving grandfather of Max Kleim and his wife Nicole, Camdyn Parr and Everett Parr; proud great grandfather of Theodore and Delainey Kleim; dear brother of Terry Hughes and her husband Dennis, Kathy van Dommelen and her husband David, Tim Kleim and his wife Debbie, Beth Leland and her husband Pat and Lorrie Chilcoat and her husband Jamie. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews.

Jamie was an owner and operator of Kleim Service Center in Cockeysville with his brother Tim. They formed a strong bond and relationship with their clientele for over 40 years as business partners. He was also an avid golfer and expert "chef". He was able to make and create something spectacular with his "little of this, little of that" technique and put life back into boring recipes. His favorite vacations were trips to the Poconos or to Bethany Beach. Jamie will be remembered as a very kind and gentle family man that was happiest surrounded by his loved ones and his dogs, Charlie and Callahan.

The family will receive friends at Peaceful Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Center, P.A., 2325 York Road, Timonium, Maryland 21093 on Friday, May 27 from 10-11 AM with a Memorial Service to begin at 11 AM. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, please remember Jamie with memorial contributions to the Alzheimer's Association or to an animal rescue charity of your choice.
