James Wilfred Frank Tutton

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Jim Tutton. He died peacefully on December 28, 2022 in West Vancouver, BC. He is survived by his children Sarah, Chris and Kathleen (Pedro), grandson Henry, and his younger brother Russell.

Jim was raised in West Vancouver, attending West Van High School and then the University of British Columbia where he took a variety of courses, finally settling on a Bachelor of Commerce and spending many years working in the field of real estate development.

Jim was an avid outdoorsman who loved boating, fishing, hiking and skiing. In the summer he could be found back country hiking, completing the entire Pacific Crest Trail over a number of years. In his mid 60's he started the Seven Summits and completed Mt. Everest Base Camp and Mt Kosciuszko before health issues prevented him from continuing. Jim's passion for skiing started in his teens on Hollyburn Mountain and never wavered. He was a Whistler original, building a cabin there in the late 1960’s, skiing there for over 35 years, and eventually retiring there. He also loved Sun Valley and that became his second home during ski season.

Jim always had a great story to tell and he will be missed by all who knew him.
