It is with great sadness that we must announce the passing of our beloved father and grandfather Jimmy Yasuo Uchida, who passed away March 20, 2021 at the age of 81. He is survived by his daughters Raelene and Tyra; son-in-law John; sisters Jane, Mary, Nellie as well as his brother Richard. Jimmy loved his five grandchildren Shaye, Hailey, Cole, Liam and Hanna.
Born in Port Alice, BC on August 12, 1939, Jimmy worked very hard his entire life as a bodyman and continued on in the Okanagan. His love for camping & fishing remained his passion right until the end.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the SPCA in Jimmy’s memory.
