Obituary For James Leslie Shellnutt
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of James Leslie Shellnutt at 71 years. Jim was born in Cornwallis, NS in 1951 and passed February 6th 2023 in Lower Sackville. Jim is survived by his children, Kelly (Dave), Melissa (Mark) and Stephen (Meghan), as well as his grandchildren Alex, Andrea, Lucy, Wyatt, and Finn; together with brother Wayne (Ingrid), sister Brenda (Mark), brother-in-law Charles and sister-in-law Janet as well as many nieces and nephews. Jim was predeceased by parents Margaret and Ernest Shellnutt, siblings Bill (Joan), Barbara, Nancy (Stewart), Philip and nephew Brent.Jim grew up spending summers at the family cottage in Fox Point where the extended Shellnutt families eventually would come to enjoy the annual corn boil. One of Jim’s proudest accomplishments was opening the Cole Harbour Road Esso with his brother Bill, where he would support many local sports teams and the community.Road trips to Connecticut to visit his grandmother and to PEI to spend time family friends were always at top of Jim’s summer plans. Jim prioritized maintaining his close social circle with many lifelong relationships that meant the world to him. His personable nature made avoiding friendships impossible.A special thank you to the Sagewood Continuing Care Community staff for the compassionate care and support for both Jim and family over the past year.A celebration of life will take place February 11th 2023, at the Cole Harbour Fire Hall located at 1150 Cole Harbour Road between 1-4pm. Words of remembrance will shared at 2pm. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in his name to the Alzheimer Society of Nova Scotia.
