James Forbes

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Jimmy. I knew him for many years. My deepest condolences to the Forbes Family.

May my support warm your heart

Sorry to hear this. Always liked Jim. We sat together in some classes and had lots of laughs. RIP.

I am very sorry to hear the sad news concerning Jimmy .I taught him in my early years at KLCVI and learned quickly that he would always rather have been in the great outdoors than in school . We always got along well and I appreciated his good humour and friendliness both in school and later when meeting in KL ! A good guy! My condolences to the family - Brian Hamilton

It is with great sadness I recieve this news. From early teens Jimmy and I were good friends, partied, prospected, fished and even started a incorporation together. Jimmy had a struggle in later life but we managed to keep our friendship true. Laurie hope you are well

Jimmy was in my class at Queen E all through public school. May he rest in peace.

So many memories of Jimmy colouring my thoughts today. I am truly sorry to heard the news of Jimmy’s passing and my condolences to you both and your whole family. Life was always a great adventure with Jimmy. I am sure he will be missed by his friends and family.

Sorry to hear of your loss. Your Dad was a great parent and it was a pleasure to know him.

So sorry to hear about Jim’s passing. Sincere condolences to all. You are in my thought during this difficult time.

I am so sorry for your loss. Throughout the years your dad and I would cross paths and regardless of how long it had been he always recoginized and greeted me. I will miss running into him. My condolances.

I knew Jimmy during the 1960’s. He was a kind lovable kid with a great sense of humour and a compassion for others less fortunate. He had many endearing qualities at that young age that impressed his older peer group. Jimmy idolized his older brother Carl and it seems fit that he would follow Carl in the field of prospecting. My condolences to his family. My most memorable memory of him was when he was in the K. L. Hospital. On a Saturday night we sneaked him out of the back door of the hospital. We drove him through downtown K. L. In the back seat of the convertible. When we returned him to the hospital we forced him to walk through the main entrance. I can still visualize him with his million dollar smile and his hospital gown with his backside in full view. He did not give us away. In those days we called him little Forbes. It is comforting to know that he grew up to be a big man loved by all.

May my support warm your heart

Sorry for your loss . Jimmy was a very colourful character and friend , whenever he was around laughter was sure to follow . We played baseball( Franklin Snakebellies) together and celebrated after every game . Talked prospecting a bit and the crew would go to his place on Queen to watch some football games . If I saw him walking I would turn around and catch up with him and see if he wanted a ride , he would usually decline the offer as he liked to be moving. Bang On Brother up in the sky . RIP Jimmie .

Bruce & I send our most heartfelt hugs & condolence's to you & the family. Although we cannot be there for Jimmy's Celebration of Life, please know that our thoughts & memories will be with you all! With Much Love Bonnie & Bruce Crichton

May my support warm your heart
