James Arthur Nicholas

Jim was a carpenter by trade and took great pride in his work. He loved the outdoors and had many hunting and fishing trips with his buddies and camping trips with his family and friends. Jim loved his family dearly. He was a man who always made himself available to help when needed. Jim was a great storyteller who loved to share his world views with a hint of comedy and a very fine scotch. He loved to travel and had many wonderful adventures with his wife Nadine.

Jim will be forever missed by his loving wife of 48 years, Nadine; his two children Ryan (Kim) and Karin (Scott); his four grandchildren Kristoffer, Jordyn, Parker and Etta; his sisters Gail and Joan and many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.

Thank you to the doctors and nurses of the ICU at ARH who provided such wonderful care to Jim before he passed away.

Those we love don’t go away,

They walk beside us every day.

Unseen, unheard, but always near,

So loved, so missed, so very dear.
