Obituary of James Robert Kaplan

James Robert Kaplan, 25 years young left this world on November 6, 2015. As a son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, friend, you could not find a better person than James. James had many talents as a musician, singer, songwriter, skater, writer, hiker, snowboarder and traveler but the accomplishment we think James would be most proud of is when someone called him "Best Friend". James grew up in Randolph and attended Randolph High School. Curry College and County College of Morris were his next academic steps. James was always drawn to the hospitality industry and worked at catering halls, restaurants and bars where he thoroughly enjoyed meeting and caring for people. At the time of James' passing he was pursuing a degree in Business and initiating a copywriting company. James valued literature and read passionately. We recommend if you would like to make a donation in James' name, the Randolph Public Library would be a fitting place, 28 Calais Road, Randolph, NJ 07869. Visitation will be Monday, November 9th, 2015, 4:00-6:00 PM at Tuttle Funeral Home, 272 State Route 10 West, Randolph, a service will follow at 6:00PM.
