James “Jim Bob” Hasbrouck, 70, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, passed away Thursday, May 30, 2024, at Mercy Medical Center, Cedar Rapids. Visitation: 12 p.m. – 2 p.m. Thursday, June 6, 2024, at Murdoch-Linwood Funeral Home & Cremation Service, Cedar Rapids with a graveside service to immediately follow at 2 p.m. at Linwood Cemetery, Cedar Rapids. The family will host a Celebration of Life from 1 – 5 p.m. June 23, 2024, at the Moose Lodge in Cedar Rapids.

Jim was born April 4, 1954, in Cass Lake, Minnesota, the son of Donald and Mary Louise (Neises) Hasbrouck. He went to North English High School and went on to honorably serve his country in The United States Marine Corps during Vietnam. Jim dedicated his life to corrections. His 20-year career with the US Dept. of Justice included the Federal Bureau of Prisons and Federal Correction Institution from Phoenix to Oregon to West Virginia. Jim also worked as a police officer in Fenton, Iowa. He was a member of the Moose Lodge since 2013, and a member of the Moose Legion.

Jim enjoyed playing cards and cheering for the Minnesota Vikings. He loved watching Perry Mason and Hogan’s Heros. Jim was well known for receiving back rubs. You could often find him in his favorite flannel shirts and taking trips to the casino with “the trio”. He will be dearly missed.

Survivors include his siblings, Louise (Ed) Neumann and Kathy Palzkill, all of Cedar Rapids, Paul Hasbrouck of Monroe, Iowa, and Donald (Deb) Hasbrouck of Marion, Iowa; sisters-in-law, Camille Hasbrouck of Sour Lake, Texas, and Kathy Hasbrouck of Thornburg, Iowa; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents; brothers, Thomas and Charles; nephew, Thomas Jr.; brother-in-law, Ronald; and sister-in-law, Carol Hasbrouck.
