Jim was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He was a friend to many and loved by all who knew him. Special thanks to his thoughtful neighbours who helped him over the past few years.
A Mason all his working life, Jim could put his hand to anything and was never afraid of hard work. He enjoyed spending time outdoors, gardening, fishing, berry picking and sharing stories with his neighbours. He liked to keep busy and remained active throughout his entire life, even getting his driver’s licence renewed on his 92nd birthday. He was a fine man who will be fondly remembered for his great sense of humour, kindness, and wisdom.
