<div itemprop="description">James (Jim) Atkinson passed away Wednesday, July 25th 2018 at the Royal Victoria Palliative Care Unit. He was in severe pain and now he rests peacefully. Jim loved his Hockey and Football. His favorite hockey team of course was the Montreal Canadians and his favorite football teams were the New England Patriots and the New York Giants. <br> <br>There will not be a funeral service, as Jim was adamant that he did not want this. Instead, Jim will be cremated and his ashes placed in a Niche at the Rideau Memorial Gardens. This will take place sometime in September and will be followed by a gathering at our home to celebrate Jim’s life. <br> <br>In lieu of flowers, please donate in Jim’s memory to the charity of your choice. <br> <br>Special thanks to all our friends and family who helped Jim through his illness and gave us so much love and support. Also thanks to all the Doctors and Nurses who gave him exceptional care in the Palliative Care Unit at the Royal Victoria Hospital. <br></div>
