Jim was predeceased by his son, Shane, parents, Herman and Florence Garland and his brother-in-law, Paul . Jim is survived by his loving wife of forty years, Sharon; children, Michele, Darcy, bonus kids, Deryk, Dahna and Corie; his 11 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren; numerous stepchildren and step grandchildren and his sisters, Madelean and Judy.
Jim was a welder for Canadian Western Natural Gas now called ATCO. He loved the outdoors, camping, hunting, fishing, and watching the wildlife; he always made friends with the wild foals, feeding them carrots; every year a new one. Photos, memories and condolences can be shared with Jim’s family here.
