LIM, James Kim Swee, loving husband, father and grandfather, passed away peacefully in Vancouver, BC at age 91, on January 4, 2020. Predeceased by his beloved wife, Pearl, and lovingly remembered by his children Gerard Gabriel (Grace), and Wendy (Seck Wee), grandchildren Gabrielle, Timothy and Joy, along with dear relatives and close friends both in Singapore and Vancouver. Originally from Singapore before eventually retiring in Canada with his wife, James enjoyed gathering with family and friends, entertaining those he met with interesting stories of his past, and touching many lives with acts of charity and a great sense of humour. He was a dedicated volunteer at his local parish at St Mary's in Vancouver and enjoyed attending Charismatic prayer service regularly there, with the Bible always close at hand. While a resident at St Vincent's Langara, James was known for his charm by staff and the other residents, despite living with dementia in the later years. James will be dearly missed by those whose lives he touched, but will always be in our thoughts, memories and hearts.
In lieu of flowers, donations to St Paul's Foundation at Providence Health BC in James' name would be much appreciated.
