Jimmy Leslie, Kamloops, BC—Jimmy Leslie passed away on August 1, 2024, following a long battle with kidney disease. He leaves behind two children, Teagan and Eden, who are deeply mourning his loss. Jimmy was a devoted father who always dreamed of taking his children on a cross-country trip to Nova Scotia, where he always called home.
Kimberly Friedel, the mother of Teagan and Eden, has organized a fundraiser to help fulfill Jimmy’s final wish. The fundraiser, titled "Jimmy’s Way Home," aims to raise $3,000 to cover the costs of transporting his ashes to Nova Scotia. There, a celebration of his life will be held with family and friends.
Both Teagan and Eden are full-time students at Thompson Rivers University (TRU), relying on scholarships and grants to support their education. The fundraiser will help ease the financial burden on the family and allow them to honor Jimmy’s memory in a way that reflects his wishes.
Kimberly expressed her gratitude for the outpouring of support from friends and loved ones. She hopes that with the funds raised, Teagan and Eden can rent an RV next year and travel across the country with their father’s ashes, stopping at places he would have loved to visit. This journey will culminate in Nova Scotia, where a heartfelt send-off will be organized by his sisters.
The community’s support and donations are crucial to making this trip possible, allowing Jimmy’s children to create lasting memories and find peace in honoring their father’s legacy.
We are deeply saddened by the loss of Jimmy Leslie. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time.
