When Jim was a teenager, he moved from Nova Scotia to start his life in Cambridge, there he met his first wife Judy Rickert Norman and had two children. Jim worked at Uniroyal in Kitchener until Goodrich took over, he retired from there after many years of hard work. He was very active in Sports, playing hockey every winter and then baseball in the summer, he even did a few rounds of golf in his spare time.
