James Carlberg Obituary
He is lovingly remembered by his wife Frances (married 67 years) and their children Laura, Mark (Karen), Lisa (Gary) and Greg (Grace) and grandchildren Krista, Kathryn and Ashley plus close extended family and friends.
James (Jim) was born in Claresholm, Alberta. After graduating high school, he moved to Seattle where received his Architectural Degree from the University of Washington. Shortly afterward he established his Architectural Firm in New Westminster.
James was an avid boater and sport fisherman, enjoying holidays on the Sunshine Coast. He loved nature and the outdoors, and passed this appreciation on to his children and grandchildren. No service by request. Donations may be made to the Kidney Foundation of Canada.
