I had the honor of working with Mr. Gladstone early on in my career defending Canadas First Nations. There were times when I thought we were both going to get kicked out of the back room of the courthouse for laughing so hard. Inside the court when Jim was at the bar, it was all business and he was somebody that I learned from and I will always be grateful for that. May God bring comfort and strength to his family especially in the days ahead.

Sorry to hear of your loss. I went to Olds Ag School with Jim in 1965. Great Guy. Remained friends over the years since.
A sad loss for all that knew Jim.

Jim worked hard for his clients and community. May his family remember him well for all the good that he did, on so many levels, in so many ways.

From childhood to old age we carry our souls along within these bodies, knowing someday we will all meet in spirit. I will meet you again & some may ask "how do you know?" My response is: "Jim, we spoke." My heart goes out to your family. They shared you with us all these years. I speak as if you can hear me so that others may know. Your only a thought away from those you love & those that love you. Wopida Mitakuye Oyasin

I knew him as a fellow defence counsel. He was a likeable man and anytime we spoke there was a laugh about something.
