He will be lovingly remembered by his mother, Lois; two sisters, Bert (Randy) Oster and Mickey Both (Bill) as well as numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his father, Kenneth. James was born and raised in Medicine Hat. Most of his working days were spent in the oilfield as a driller. After he retired, he started his own I.T. company which he retired from in 2019.
