• Hey Uncle Jim🤓. So glad to know you are safe and sound awaiting the start of the next Real life, where I will see you soon. I moved provinces and lost track of Aunt Linda and Julie who I haven't seen since she was a little girl but Aunt Linda showed me the Wedding Bells and Flair Magazine Photos, Amazing Model my Cousin. Wish I could talk to her and A Linda. I heard A Linda on the Radio Interview which blew my mind. God bless you Auntie, Incredible Bravery. Well gang, I Love you all and miss you much. See you later alligator. Oh ya, thanks again for the 68 Ford Fairlane Uncle Jim and Aunt Linda,it was really great. - Posted by: David (Nephew) on: Jan 16, 2020

• I will miss Jim, and his love with snowmobiling. I have had the pleasure of dealing & helping him with this passion for around 20 years! He was the most honorable, toughest, fun to be around man i know. Loved his family and life at the lake! I now own one of his sleds, and will keep it running & close to my heart for years for you my friend. Until we meet again. SteveO - Posted by: Steve Wilson (Friend) on: Jan 15, 2018

• Candy and I spent many hours enjoying life with Jim. His favourite expression when we said thanks for coming after a fun evening was “It was great being had”. Always an optimist and always prepared for anything he was an inspiration to most of those around him. His honesty and integrity was never questioned by anyone. Being part of his journey with cancer showed his strength and dedication to those who loved him. A fighter to the end and always looking out for those around him even when he was enduring his own battle. He was always more worried about Lori than himself. We will always remember Jim as a great friend and neighbour we could count on in time of need. We will never know a more gentle, honest and genuine person. A great man can now continue his journey pain free. Jim will never have to look back with any regrets and can smile and see all of those people who like Candy and me, Lori, his family and friends who are wishing him the best. So long Buddy. We were blessed to know you. - Posted by: Dave Crabb and Candace Neufeld (Friend) on: Jan 14, 2018

• Jim is an absolutely wonderful friend. He was always available when I needed a friend to talk to on a lonely night. If I needed advice or help at the cottage Jim was there. 1) Jim worked part time for 25 years or so at a plumbing company in Wpg. He arranged for me to purchase a showroom Bosch hot water heater and Jim supplied a shower for the cottage. 2)A day or two after my father passed Jim and I found an unopened bottle of Glayva in the basement with a 25 year old excise wrapper. We drank the whole bottle toasting Dad with each mouthful. There are many more stories and not all of them were successful but all of them have created a memory that I can revisit that bring a smile to me. Thank you Jim - Posted by: Ted Hawley (30 year friend) on: Jan 13, 2018
