Sylvia and family ... Our heartfelt condolences on your loss. So shocked to learn the news yesterday but we will always cherish fond memories of Jim from the time you lived on Panter Cr. Our families were among the first to move onto the street almost 40 years ago and I can't forget Jim and Greg helping me to finish planting the tree on our front lawn ... I had fallen into the hole dug from my wheelchair ...
That Japanese cherry still stands , still blooms every spring and now a testament to the great neighbour we had . Our thoughts and prayers are with you . It was a real pleasure knowing Jim . God Bless .

Sylvia, Debbie and Greg We are so saddened on the passing of Jim. He was a favourite of mine. We grew up together at the Rouge and lost contact for a few years until Greg and our Son Todd payed hockey together in Ajax. I have very fond memories of Jim. He was so kind and gentle and always a smile for everyone..
Unfortunately, we will not be able to come to the funeral tomorrow as I have just had surgery and unable to go anywhere for a few days. I would love to pay my respects to all of you. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Jim thanks for our longtime friendship and may you rest in peace. God Bless all of you.

Dear Sylvia & Family: One of the measures of a person's contribution in life is how they touched our lives. Jim was extraordinary. We only knew him from his association to Pelican Pier MHP. He was a valued addition to the PP community. He participated in all the events, often volunteering his assistance. He lightened everyone's life with his humor. He often boasted about his children and grand children. He was a loving caring man that will be sorely missed. We thank God for having known him. Our deepest condolences to you.

We are very sorry for the loss of such a great man. I had a large amount of respect for Jim. We shared many laughs and he always brought a smile to my face with his funny and "offside" sense of humour. He will be missed by many but never forgotten by anyone he ever met. R.I.P. my friend.
