In memory of those who have Crossed the Bar
WADDINGTON, James Stanley (Jim) - Jim was born in Vancouver BC on November 5th, 1947. He married his life partner Audrey in December 1967 and together they raised two adoring sons Ken and Guy Waddington. Jim will always be remembered as a loving husband, father, and grandfather. He was quick with a joke or a smile and loved to laugh.
He worked hard his entire life and, most recently ,found a passion for instructing with Calfrac in Grand Prairie AB. When he was home, he never failed to amaze with his practical wood working and mechanical application. He enjoyed playing cards, reading, John Wayne movies, country music, and spending time boating whenever possible.
Jim will forever be missed by his wife Audrey Waddington, sons Ken (Cindy), Guy (Tracy), grandsons Spencer, Eric and Brooke, granddaughter Chloe. Also left to cherish his memory are his sisters Danella (Denis), Mickie (Ken), Judi; his brother Stephen (Julie); and many nieces, nephews, cousins, in-laws, and friends.
He was predeceased by his parents Rev. Stanley and Marjorie Waddington, and his sister Denise.
There will be no service just a small gathering of the immediate family in remembrance of love and life.The family would like to extend their thanks to the EMS attendants, medical staff at RIH emergency room, Veteran Affairs, Dr. Du Preez and Dr. Calder. (The Kamloops This Week 11 Sep 2013)
