c.1910 James Thompson Mailer in his I.O.O.F. attire.

Our departed friend was a life-long member of the Masonic Fraternity, and the crowning distinction in his Masonic career came to Mailer a short time ago when he was elected for investiture as a 33rd degree Scottish Mason at the meeting of the Convention of the Scottish Rite in Washington, D.C., a much-coveted award. It was given him for his long and faithful service to Masonry. He would have been invested in the 33rd degree at a ceremonial which was planned for January in Scottish Rite Temple in San Francisco. Now, there will be a vacant chair in the group when the time comes. His father before him had been distinguished as a 33rd degree Scottish Rite. Jim Mailer was a Knight Commander of the Court of Honor of the Scottish Rite.

Mailer family burial record at the cemetery.

James T. Mailer, Stricken Suddenly, Dies in Hospital

Sudden death yesterday of James T. Mailer, Santa Rosa business and fraternal leader, came as a distinct shock to countless friends in this community and throughout Sonoma county. Mailer had not been in robust health since suffering a heart attack several months ago, but was at his business as usual Friday afternoon. He attended a Shrine Club dinner and meeting Friday night, and was stricken ill several hours later. He died in a hospital here at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. His wide circle of friends accumulated since his boyhood days in Santa Rosa High School, and continuing through the years of his intimate touch with the business world here, was startled and momentarily hushed as word quickly spread in the community that "Jimmy Mailer is dead."

Mailer was stricken suddenly with a cerebral hemorrhage at the family home Friday night, and immediately relapsed into coma. It was the same home in which he was born 65 years ago. Dr. William E. Rogers was hastily summoned and found the sick man unconscious. He was removed by ambulance to the Tanner Hospital and all human effort failed to rally him. Several hours later, and without regaining consciousness, he exchanged time for eternity.

c.1940 Mailer's hardware store on Fourth street, Santa Rosa, Calif. + front page newspaper headline.

James Thompson Mailer, son of the late Mayor and Mrs. James C. Mailer, was born in Santa Rosa, the son of much-honored parents. He attended the public schools and graduated from the Santa Rosa High School. As a youth, he entered the widely known hardware business founded by his father, and he remained connected with the old-established firm, later merged into the Mailer Hardware Company, right up to the time of his death. He was in the Fourth street establishment as usual Friday night, greeting customers and friends. In the evening, he mingled with many friends in a gathering of Scottish Rite Masons. Some time ago, he was stricken with a heart aliment and for a time was seriously ill, but of late had apparently been feeling much better. On the day preceding his death, he showed no signs of illness. But such is the story of life and death.

Aside from his business and fraternal connections, Jim Mailer was prominently identified with many movements for the advancement of the city, county and state. His honesty and integrity remained unchallenged. He was slow to say anything ill of a fellow, and in consequence he will be missed along the path of friendship and in the memory books of legion of friends, his name will be indelibly inscribed.
