IN LOVING MEMORY OF JAMES FREDERICK NEWBERY
It is with profound sadness and much love that we say goodbye to our beloved Jim.
Our dear brother, James Frederick Newbery, known to many friends and family as “Jimmy” passed away suddenly on September 29, 2022, at home.
A son, grandson, brother, father, uncle, cousin, grandfather, and beloved friend, Jim will be remembered for his loving spirit, sense of humor and positive attitude. His generosity for his family, friends and community was legendary. He was helpful, thoughtful, independent, loving, and supportive.
Jim loved independence, free will and adventure. No one could keep up with him. From the time he was a toddler, it was always ‘Life On the Edge’ for that guy. Later on, he was always happy to be “Riding on the Highways’ on his big Harley. More recently, health issues dictated that he trade in his big Harley for his “Hardly” as he called it. Jim was a familiar face in his neighbourhood as he rode around on his big red scooter on personal business, checking on others, helping the locals, or volunteering for local agencies. Since his move to Kamloops, his passion for helping others in his community was endless. He was a community man.
Jim is survived by his two daughters, Natasha and Nicole, his son Nicholas, and his grandchildren. He also leaves to mourn his eight siblings and all of their families: brother Robin and Gillian, brother Patrick and Leslie, brother Scott and Brenda, brother Jerry and Lesley, sister Melanie and family, sister Naomi and Myles, sister April and Dave, sister Marlin (Donna) and Al.
Jim was predeceased by his parents, Jim and Shirley Newbery.
The sudden and tragic loss of our brother has left a void in all of us. You will live in our hearts forever Jim.
