So Jimmy past away at 17 years old. He had his whole life ahead of him. I was at TD baker when Jimmy got in trouble for swatting the school. I also remember him getting seriously injured in that fight where a weapon was used on him. Jim told me about his parents divorce and how hard it was for him and his sister growing up. This kid had a hard life. The sad reality is suicide happens to every age group, ethnic group, and does not discriminate based on sex. Jimmys story helped me realize that you can not sweat the small stuff. This kid was close to 18 years of age, if he was able to escape to BC who knows how his story would of gone. He would be in his early 30s and life was just starting life. RIP Jimmy G.

"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, Love leaves a memory no one can steal"--irish proverb And so very true....the loss is always going to be felt. However, the love you left with us will always remain. You continue to live in our hearts. By this time, you would've graduated and at UBC as you had planned. Thankful to your Dad, for believing in your dreams and starting this scholarship <3

Dear Jimmy, Happy Mother’s day, I hope you are doing well up there looking down on us as we always look up thinking of you. Son, I have always been proud of you and proud of what you and I have been able to do for the students of UBC for the last six years under your name. I know in my heart if you were still here with us you would have done spectacular things to make any mother and father proud but even in your absence you have helped the lives of twelve people. A lot of time has passed since you left but there is no moment where I feel you are gone, there is no moment where you are not still the strength in my heart and what brings peace to my mind in difficult times. Even now I keep healthy and strong and go to our favorite YMCA like we used to together, never missing a day because you would never let me when you were here. It is because of you I call BC my only home because it is where you always wanted to be so it is where you will always find me. You have done a lot now Jimmy, rest now in peace because you deserve it. Yours always with love, Dad, Stepmom Shindy, and rest of the family.

I never knew Jimmy but I knew his father, if you ever want to see him smile all you have to do is say his son's name.Believe me when I say there is no love warmer than the one your father has for you Jimmy, in your father's love you will never be forgotten.
