Obituary
OOSTERHUIS, James (Jamie) Theodore (1975-2020) – Passed away suddenly Tuesday October 27th 2020, due to an accident while working. James was the biggest hearted, hardest working guy you could imagine. He was the father of two amazing young women; Cyra (deceased) and Addy, beloved life partner to Brenda and her wonderful kids; Justin and Sarah. Dear son of Jan & Johanna Oosterhuis, and brother of Samuel (Melissa) Oosterhuis and their children Lukas and Ben; Sarah (Nathan Welch) and their children Basil and Josie; Jon (Tonia Stasi) Oosterhuis and Tonia’s son Tyler; Liz Collier and her daughter Shyann; Andrew (Alana) and their son Hudson; and Kelly Oosterhuis. He will be missed by his mother-in-law Pat Wills, sister-in-law Heather Wills, extended family and many, many friends. He faced real challenges at every stage of life, but continued forward with bullish optimism and ceaseless tenacity. James always showed up with a zany comment, crazy joke, random story, or a unique observation. He was known for his compassion and willingness to jump in to help when he saw a need, or to fix whatever was broken. He will be missed profoundly by all that knew him. We love you dear James. A Celebration of Life to take place at a later date. If desired, contributions to the Canadian Mental Health Association (in honour of his daughter Cyra) would be appreciated, and may be arranged through the Brock and Visser Funeral Home, Woodstock.
