James Rendle was the third child born to Trevor and Doris Rendle in Turtleford, SK on June 24, 1947. He passed away suddenly on February 25, 2019 with his family by his side. James took his schooling at Elmhurst and Moosehead. When James moved to Edmonton he met the love of his life, Brenda Wagner. He worked various jobs before going to mechanic school and then worked as a mechanic for years. He also did sheet metal, was a camp cook and owned a couple of businesses, a restaurant in Spruce Lake called Golden Pond and a Mobile Mechanic Truck. One of his last jobs was driving truck in the oilfield. Jimmy enjoyed fishing, hunting, cooking, painting pictures, and horse back riding. He liked the old ways of doing things, he loved nature, and was always ready to help anyone in need. Lately he liked having coffee at Kim's Service with the guys.
He is predeceased by: his father, Trevor; his great nephew, Zachery; and his (Brenda's) nephew, Andrew Block.
Left to cherish his memory are: his mother, Doris; his siblings, Wayne (Gloria) and their children, Vance and Trevor; Rick and his children, Trevor and Dylan; Ruth (Garry) and their children, Donna and Kenneth; Kim (Jim) and their daughter, Cassidy; eleven great nieces and nephews; and Brenda's family and extended family.
Jim will be missed by his family and all of his friends who were so dear to him.
