JAMES (JIM) FREDERICK POTT

June 29, 1969 - April 21, 2024


With profound sadness, we announce the sudden passing of our beloved James (Jim) Pott on April 21, 2024.

Jim was blessed with two special women throughout his lifetime where he built his legacy. In his earlier years, he courted Claudette Ross and he is survived by their three children, Cheryl (Brian Spence), Micheal and Ashely. He is also survived by his grandchildren, Hannah Spence, Gideon Dalupang, Mason Spence, Caden Pott and Andre Pott.

In his next chapter, he met Diana Huff who had three girls that he took under his wing, Airelle and Alexa Smith and Shelby Richards (Caga). To round out his ever-growing family to become what Jim referred to as “Eight is Enough”, he and Diana gave birth to a set of twins, Kristian and Kiana (Chaz Hanna). Jim is also survived by his grandchildren, William Chabot-Pott, Nolan Pott, Wayne Hanna, SkylarHanna and Kimberly Richards.

Jim leaves behind his mother Margaret Pott (nee Cowan) and sisters, Lorna Rempel and Tammy Anstett (Mike) along with their families, Greg, Jeremy and Evan Anstett and Joshua Rempel. He was predeceased by his father Lorne Pott on October 9, 2012.

Jim was born in Stonewall, Manitoba and raised in the Woodmore community on a small hobby farm. He attended Roseau Valley Collegiate in Dominion City and graduated in 1988. Jim spent the majority of his life living in the Ridgeville area and working at Hy-Life in the hog production industry.

Funeral services will be held at Ridgeville Community Hall on Saturday May 4th, 2024, at 2:00 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donations to the Ridgeville Community Club or the Ridgeville Hall Committee.

Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

  • Dear family, sharing your grief and offering you all our deepest sympathies. Jim was always friendly, willing to help anyone in need. He had a special talent for numbers, if you ever had a chance to speak to him about his family he knew when they were born what time and what year events had happen in his family. His dear mother was his rock as he face issues in his life. May god give him peace and mercy and all of us that will miss him, a courageously way in life until we meet him again. Ray and Monique Mayner. - Posted by: Monique and Ray Mayner (Friends) on: Apr 27, 2024
