James “Jim” Mitchel Redmond passed away on September 1, 2026 in Manitoba where he was working at the time.
Born February 21, 1966 to Jimmy and Betty (Lynch) Redmond in Pictou, Nova Scotia he spent his younger years hanging out at Pictou trying to get through school. He finally decided to become a chef.
He loved to cook and took his talents and passion from Nova Scotia to many kitchens of hotels and restaurants out west then to Turks and Caicos Island before coming back to Alberta and worked in camps up north.
Jim also loved to fish. It gave him peace and joy.
