It is with deep sorrow to announce the passing of Jaime Fetter.  As a child we knew Jamie had an early love of Christmas lights making custom lit Christmas decorations. This love evolved into the collection of extension cords, which morphed into electrical wiring; taking items apart, then rewiring back together.  This all earned him the nickname Sparky as a child.  I have fond memories of him testing things while playing downstairs and the breaker going.  We would sit in the dark as mom would run down the stairs asking what are you two doing and why is the power out, all the while knowing we were up to something as we both sat there laughing.   As a child it was the wiring section of a store not the toy section he wanted to visit.  New Christmas lights, not toys were on his Christmas wish list. I remember as a toddler he would reorganize the Christmas lights shelves.   When asked why, Jamie would reply, "How do they think they are going to sell these with them all mixed up?  They need to be organized by color red, green and blue.”   As he grew older, Jamie became passionate about restoring pinball machines. This quickly had him fixing boards for people across Canada whilst earning him the new nickname; Pinball Wizard!  As an adult he found a new love of underground sprinklers which lead him to work seasonally for the City of Saskatoon Parks in the irrigation department.  During the winter months after acquiring his electricians ticket, Jamie worked for the electrical union.   Jamie was always on the go, thinking of next new project or helping friends and family with theirs.  When his wife, Michelle, came into his life, he was able to slow down and began to  enjoy the small things in life. Michelle and Jamie married in 2008, had a beautiful daughter Kayla, then had another beautiful daughter Jena in 2010; becoming a most loving father and husband. As a family, there were many trips to the beautiful mountains of Alberta or B.C, as well as camping trips to Waskesiu, Saskatchewan.  Together as a couple, Michelle and Jamie shared an equal love of music attending many live concerts over the years.  As a father, he doted on his daughters, helping with homework and walking the girls to school daily.  He will be deeply missed and never forgotten; a husband, father, son, brother, friend, pinball wizard and sparky. God bless and rest in peace; we always know you are watching over us.
