July 8, 1947 – December 24, 2022
I am sad to inform the passing of a very kind considerate man. Jim was born in Manning, Alberta. He got his certification for Heavy Duty Parts man, which was his career till he retired.
He enjoyed his hunting trips with his friend Roy. Jim moved to Whitehorse to work for a short period of time with his friend Ernie.
In the 70’s he moved to Kamloops. In 1978 he married Johanna, wife of 44 years. Jim loved to go boating and camping with his wife and his black labs – Kluane, Kayla and Babe.
Jim spent many years with the Kamloops Power and Sail squadron teaching boating safety and many years with the Kamloops Yacht club.
Survived by his wife Johanna, step-daughter Dodie Lampman (Fred), sister Shirley Denison, nephews, nieces and many sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law. He is predeceased by his parents Jack and Margaret Frith and a younger sister Rita Frith.
Thank you to the Doctors and Nurses in Emergency and 7 North at RIH for their care and compassion.
No service by request. Donations can be made to any charity of one’s choice.
Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at Schoening Funeral Service for the Frith family.
