It is with great sadness that the family of James Thomas Outten announces his passing after a courageous battles with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
James passed away peacefully on September 9, 2017 at the age of 52 years old.
James was born on June 17, 1965 in Victoria, BC and moved to Calgary shortly after where he grew up in Bowness.
He worked in the hospitality industry where he met the love of his life Cheryl Dianne Nickel in 1985 and wed in Maple Creek Saskatchewan on January 21, 1989.
James worked in all service industries but his love for driving took him to work for Golden Arrow Busses and Cliff's Towing in Edmonton.
