1962 – 2021

It is with incredible sadness that we announce the passing of a loving son, brother, and father, Ellis Jamrich. He was taken from us suddenly in early January 2021 at the age of 58.

Ellis’s pride and joy was his beautiful daughter, Jana.  He was loved by his entire family, parents Jim and Rose, siblings Julie and Cory (Lisa), his nephew Dryden, and nieces Lexi and Brit. Ellis had a heart of gold and a smile that could light up a room.  He was always telling jokes and thinking of others, whether that meant tending to his neighbours or giving a stranger a hand.  He loved the ‘elderly’ as he never considered himself ‘old’ and he cared about anyone that crossed paths with him.

While we could go on for ages about Ellis, we would like to leave the stories for when we have a celebration of life, which we’re aiming for in late spring or early summer 2021. Until then, please raise a glass and do a ‘cheers’ for Ellis in his honour.

We would like to thank our extended family and many good friends for reaching out to us during this very difficult time. It has meant the world to our family. In lieu of flowers, you may wish to donate to the charity of your choice.

You may share condolences at Kamloops Funeral Home.
