James L. Albright, age 64, of Columbia, passed away on November 7, 2026 after a brief illness at
St. Thomas Ascension in Murfreesboro.
James was born in Clarksville, Tennessee on April 27, 1962 to parents Phillip & Sue (Clark) Albright.
He was a graduate of Clarksville High School and worked at Parks Belk for years before moving to
Columbia.
James loved cars, baseball and music. He was never one to be shy about speaking his mind.
He will be remembered for loving fiercely, the depth of his heart & perseverance until the end. Later in
life he discovered his faith and we take comfort in knowing he is fully healed in Heaven.
He is survived by his father, Phillip, his daughter, Suzanne (Steven) Butler and grandchildren Aspen,
London and Maverick as well as his siblings, Phyllis, Clark and Marcus Albright and several nieces and nephew.
The family will hold a private memorial service and he will be at rest in Greenwood Cemetery.
We encourage you to share your memories here of James. In lieu of flowers the family requests you make
a donation in James’s name to the charity of your choice.
