Jim Nelson Obituary

Jim Leonard Nelson
Born: January 22, 1936, Gwynne, Alberta
Died: October 17, 2025, Wetaskiwin, Alberta

Jim has two sisters in Wetaskiwin, Lynne Meyer and Colleen McGinnis, who loved him very much, as did his two daughters, Myrna and Christine from Vancouver Island.

Jim was full of “spunk” and loved to tease. He was a long-distance truck driver for most of his working life, and enjoyed time spent with friends at the truck stop in Nisku. For several years, Leduc was his home-base but he always loved being on the road. We will miss him.
