It's been a year now , since uncle Jim has passed. Difficult to believe that we will never see him again. We cherish the pictures and the fun and beautiful memories he leaves behind. He was an inspiring man that always made you want to be the best of whatever you did. His soul lives now through his loved ones that he leaves behind. Hugs to all in Edmonton . Xo

James was what school bus drivers are all about, kind and considerate and always put others before himself. The kids on his bus will miss him as will the friends he made while working with First Student. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Kate, Marnie, Beth & Families,
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I remember playing baseball with Jim on "The Stunnies" team and even at his age was still one of our better players! He was a great guy with an abundance of passion for life. In my short time spent around him, he always made me laugh.
My thoughts are with all of you and your respective families.
