Memorial services will be Saturday, March 2, 2019, at 2 p.m. at the Northway Baptist Church, 1421 Buchta Rd, Angleton, Texas, 77515. Pastor Joe Constantine and staff will officiate.

Jim was born to Roy and Odessa Lambert on October 7, 1940 in Hidalgo County, Texas. Jim is survived by his wife, Ruby Lambert; son, Randal Lambert wife, Traci: daughter, Karen Mueck husband, Troy; grandchildren, Kyle Lambert wife Trishia, Dalton Lambert, Kaleigh Kubala and Kourtney Kubala. The twinkle in his eyes came when the four great grandchildren would come to visit; Kinsley Kubala, Kannon Waddy, Alie and Aubrey Lambert. "This is what life is all about," he would say.

Also surviving Jim is his sister, Linda Britt and several nieces and nephews. A special acknowledgement to nephews Shane Bates Jennifer, and Skeeter Johnson Lee Ann for going out of their way giving help and support.

His parents, Roy and Odessa Lambert, his sisters, Wanda Kenward Johnson, Sandra Irwin Gibbons, brother-in-law, Bill Britt precede him in death.

Jim always lived life to the fullest and was involved in many ventures. In high school he was a natural and an accomplished athlete. He attended Texas A & M University Engineering Extension Service, Rio Grande Valley Police Academy. He joined the U S Air Force, but always had farming and ranching as an ultimate goal. Whether it was helping kids with their horses, goats or sheep at the livestock shows or furnishing the retail stores with hibiscus or bougainvillea from his nursery, he still had time for hunting and fishing.

Our condolences to the Lambert family on your loss. We knew Jim for a short period. He and his wife moved across the street from us. He was a nice neighbor and always willing to help others. He gave us some good advice regarding our oak trees we had planted. He loved working outdoors, planting his trees, installing his own lawn sprinkler system and leveling dirt in backyard. Everyone in the neighborhood loved Jim. He will me missed.
