James Lyaal McIntyre

It is with extreme heavy hearts that we share the passing of this amazing and special man. A wonderful husband of 65 years, dad, grandpa and great-grandpa.

A man who loved his family with all he had. Generous beyond measure, Jim was an avid sports fan, especially the Oilers and Junior hockey, as well as baseball and curling. He worked hard in the oilfield to raise his large family and collected many others we brought home. Dad always had an open door policy. Through his many years in the oilfield he amassed many friends and colleagues that kept in contact through the years.

He loved fishing, skeet shooting, but most of all he loved his family and spending time with them.

We will miss our hero a lifetime and honor his memory with love and pride.

Jim is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Lorna; his children Stephen, Cathy, Cheryl (Farley), Shawn (Lisa), and Carrie; 15 grandchildren; 8 great-grandchildren; and many friends and extended family. Predeceased by his parents Malcolm and Bernice McIntyre, brother Jerry, son-in-law Peter, daughter-in-law Brenda, niece Kelly and many others.

A Celebration of Jim's life will be announced at a later date.
