  1. Hi Caren,
    I just heard from Mike about Jim’s passing. We are so very sorry to hear of your loss. We remember Jim being full of life and laughter. He was very personable and welcoming. We sure appreciated that when we were new to the neighborhood on Cambell Creek Road.
    He was very entertaining and told great stories.
    We are grateful we got to know him.
    Blessings and peace to you and your family.
    Mike and Katherine Plysiuk

My name is Michelle I live in Kamloops, and I read that James had Amyloidosis, and my mom was diagnosed with it a few years ago and she lives in Kamloops as well, as you know it’s hard to find others in BC with it. I was hoping I could ask you a few questions about Amyloidosis, if so please contact me at mitchybaby24@ hotmail.com.Thank you
