My name is Paige Schmitt, I am the fiancé of James Allen Mainieri.

James was the father of two young children. His step-daughter Avery-10, Levi, two weeks shy of his 4th birthday.

9/12/24 at 5:17pm James tragically lost his life in a motorcycle accident while leaving the ford dealership where he worked. A car leaving a shopping plaza made a left turn in front of him, resulting in his instant death. James was a very hardworking provider for his family, loving father to his two children and love obsessed partner to myself. This is a sickening tragedy that has happened to our family. With James being the sole provider, it has left all financial responsibilities on my shoulders. While I figure out next steps, we are appreciating anything anyone is able to help us with to get our family through the beginning of our grievance. We are heartbroken, sickened and angry. We are left feeling broken, numb, and lost. I appreciate everyone during this time who has reached out, offered encouragement, and assistance.
