Laura and Family,

I am so very sorry to hear about James passing. James was always so cheery and friendly every time I saw him in the back lane. May he rest well.

Heartfelt condolences to you Laura and your loved ones.

My heart waf filled with sadness upon knowing your passing my dear friend. Gone too soon? Why my brother.

James and I worked together at Sobey's, He was 21 and I was 56 at that time but we got along very well as a co-worker and close friend, We both enjoyed our company and shared a lot of humorous jokes. He would always treat me a cup of coffee and muffins at Tim's accross Sobey's at Kenaston during our work breaks, We never lost communications till he moved to Costco. I'm gonna miss you my brother. Til we meet again.

Man, just wow... When I heard the news this morning it took everything in me to hold it together. James and I have been friends for 20 years, met on YouTube when he was just 12, looking for marathon running advice when he came across my videos. We chatted lots over the years through running, depression and personal struggles to bodybuilding, heart struggles, families, all the craziness of the past decade and most importantly our love for Jesus.

We lived in the same city for much of that time and never got to actually meet in person but, we were always in each other's corner. It broke my heart to see the news... and I went through our messages noticing you hadn't seen the last reels I shared with you and now I know why. The last one that you saw and loved was about the Shroud of Turin. I love that our lives grew parallel and that we were able to watch each other grow and share with each other physically, emotionally and spiritually.

You were still so young with so much love and life in you... Man, the good ones keep going way too young. We will finally meet up and get that big giant bear hug one day up at those pearly gates. Love you lots my dude 👊

Bro I was shocked to learn of your passing you will definitely be missed by all that new you. I am thankful I got to know you for 9 years every time we ran into each other you always had that big shit eating grin I will miss seeing you and heart your stories rest easy my friend

Such. A solid dude , devastating to hear this loss. gunna miss the 1-4 hr car talks . Rest easy bro !

I was one of James' teachers at WPC. He was such a joy to have in our classroom. He definitely knew the value of hard work and was always kind to everyone. He was always coming up with ideas for his next adventure. I am sure he was an amazing Dad who loved his family to the moon and back. My sincerest condolences.

James and I worked together for five years, sharing many meaningful conversations. We are all so lucky to have known him, which makes this loss all the more devastating.

My heart goes out to Laura, Ireland, and Olivia.

There's definitely a void in this world Broksi. Your presence was huge! I'm so glad our paths crossed and I feel blessed that I got to be your number 1 friend :) I will miss seeing you and hearing "I'm living the dream" and me always asking you "how are you always so happy". You're one of a kind James and always will be. Keep watching over those Beautiful ladies you have (all 3). Your light was taken too early - but it will never fade. Rest in paradise my friend

Jimmy, you broke our hearts the day we learned of your passing. What a blessing it was to have gotten to know you over the last 4 years. Your hugs, kindness,smile and laughter will be missed but not forgotten. I know you will be watching over Laura and the girls from up there. You were an amazing husband and girl Dad and I hope they find peace in knowing that you will always be with them. Keep living the dream up there bud xoxo

Love ya xoxo
