On January 2, 2013 at age 84, our beloved Dad (Papa) left us to join Mom (Nana), his wife of over 50 years.

He is lovingly missed by daughter Myrna Olm of Kamloops, daughter Leah & husband Rob DuCharme of Kamloops; grandchildren Kim Dea, Marni Capostinsky, Phil DuCharme and Corrine Szanto; also eleven great grandchildren.

Dad came from a very large family and was predeceased by mother Ethel Stevenson as well as all of his brothers and sisters.

Papa was a very good man and would help out anyone in need if he could. He also enjoyed a good joke and had an excellent sense of humour. One of his favorite past times was watching a good baseball game on the TV.

Dad was well regarded by all his old friends and the many new ones that he had made while living at the Hamlets.

A private Celebration of Jim's life will be held at a later date.

Friends wishing to honor his memory may do so by donation to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Heart & Stroke Foundation.
