The James P Tutino Memorial Scholarship
Fund was created by the Tutino family in order to honor and
memorialize James (Jim). Jim was killed on January 26, 2005
when a distraught man, thought to be suicidal, positioned
his SUV on the Metrolink train tracks in Glendale CA resulting
in a train derailment that ultimately took the life of 11
innocent people riding the train that morning. Jim, who was
on his way to work as a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s
Deputy, was one of the passengers. In addition to his 23 years
of service as a deputy, Jim had also been the assistant varsity
football coach at Simi Valley High School for the previous
five years. During his time as coach he performed numerous
acts of kindness and was known for sharing his positive energy
with the team and the other coaches. He will be remembered
as someone whose goals in life were to live with passion and
give to others with compassion and a generous heart.
