BRIDGTON, Maine — James “Jim” Senior, Esq., 72, of Bridgton, Maine, formerly of North Reading, passed away after a short illness in Gilbert, Arizona on June 7, 2020 with his daughter Kelly by his side. Jim lived in Bridgton, Maine and spent his winters in Gilbert, Arizona.

He was born to Evelyn and Robert Senior on August 15, 1947 in Worcester. He graduated from West Boylston High School and went on to graduate from Tufts University. He taught English at Woburn High School while getting his degree in law from Suffolk University. He was active in local politics while he lived in North Reading and was interested in politics for the rest of his life.

Jim was married to Rosalie (Valliere) Campaniello and they had a long and beautiful marriage. They did many things together and traveled to many exciting places. Rosalie was the love of his life and their marriage will forever be an example to those of us he’s left behind.

Jim had an immense love for his friends, laughter and golf. He was also an avid Harley motorcycle enthusiast and an impressive nature photographer. If you knew Jim you knew that he had a huge heart and he always put others before himself. He was a fantastic lawyer (and golfer), but an even better husband, friend and father.

Jim is survived by his loving wife Rosalie and his three children, Kelly Senior, Andrew Senior and Dana Campaniello. He also leaves behind his grandchildren, Danielle and Gwen Gaiser; his sister, Abigail Currier, and countless other family and friends.

Funeral arrangements will be determined at a later date due to the current worldwide health situation. In lieu of flowers, please send donations in his name to The National Organization for Rare Disorders at rarediseases.org/donate/
