JAMES ROBERT MCCOMBE

Peacefully, still the master of his fate, James Robert McCombe died at age 95 on June 25, 2020 at home in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

He is survived by his wife Lesley McCombe, children Joe (Vivian), Lisa (Kevin) and Laurie (Lenny) and stepchildren Peggy (Ben), Erica (Kevin), and Claire (Dustin), grandchildren Jennifer (Mick), Matthew (Jennifer), Melissa (Derek), Danny (Sandra), Liam, Aidan, Ada, and great-grandchildren Louie, Elsie, Alexis, Travis, Emma, Henri, Annabelle, Sebastien, Jackson, Jordan, and Jeremy.

He was predeceased by his first wife Louie, siblings Doreen, Lorraine, Brian, Jack, Larry, and Joanne, and parents Joseph and Jean.

Because of the pandemic and especially its travel restrictions, there will be no immediate memorial celebration of Jim’s long and celebrated life. When it becomes possible to plan such an event, there will be a further announcement.

Flowers gratefully declined, with thanks. Should anyone wish to donate in Jim’s name, his favourite charity is the Salvation Army, or to a charity of your choice.
