James RODERICK Obituary
1981- 2022
On August 1, 2022, our son, James was poisoned by fentanyl at his home and as a result he passed away.
Our hearts are broken and will be broken until we see him again beside our Lord. We all loved his big hugs, beautiful smile, and his sense of humor.
James did not get the chance to say goodbye to his parents, Ron and Pat, his twin sons, Jacob and Lucas, his daughter, Emily, the love of his life and mother of his children Laurie, his sister, Melissa and nieces lzabella and Elizabeth, aunt Colleen, uncle Norman, uncle Tony, his cousins (besties): Andrew, Kathryn, Mary, David, Michael and Steven. Chelsea, Mike etc.
James loved snowboarding, motorcycling, and working on his low rider. James kept his mother alive by donating stem cells to help fight leukaemia. James worked hard at the oil fields and partied hard when he was off work.
We would like to thank all our friends, and relatives for masses, prayers, visits, cards, food, and our anonymous friends for their generous donation.
Last but not least Joe and Laura Fowlie and their family for their prayers, kindness and support over the years.
We'll say goodbye with James famous words "we'll do it tomorrow".

So sad to hear this news. We moved away from PG 10 years ago. I lost touch with James. He was a great friend, workmate and we always shared laughs and had great times during and after work. Our prayers are with his family and kids. He is, and will be greatly missed. Our kids always remember him as my friend James with the lowrider.
I always wondered when I would see him again. I am saddened to know that it won't be soon.
So sorry to Mr. and Mrs. Roderick and Jake, Lucas and Emily.
