Dear Kathy and family. I am so very sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I met and worked one summer with Jim and Mike at Blount many, many years ago and we became summer-time friends. Jim and I often ate lunch together and I remember when he told me Kathy you were pregnant with your daughter. He was so happy. I remember a great guy who in the short time I knew him, left a lifelong impression with me... someone I will never forget. I can only image how terribly missed he will be by his family and friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Kathy, Chantelle, Justin and Bronsen: I was so sorry to hear about your husband and father, Jim. I feel so badly for all of you and he will be dearly missed by your family and friends. So sorry I could not see you personally, but I am on a trip to Bermuda visiting my cousin who is a Priest. We will make sure to add Jim's name to Father Paul's Masses @ St. Agnes in Bermuda. I will catch up with you when I am home. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. P.S. My youngest son Ryan, said your hubby, was always good to them as young men out partying in Guelph, and he would always make sure they got safely home to Fergus and Elora. Ryan said "Just a nice guy"!!

Hello, i didn't know Jim personally but i wanted to share a little story. A couple years ago, myself and a couple friends were going to an out of town party and Jim was our driver. I was talking on the way that there were tornado warnings and how i was a little apprenhensive about being away from home if this did happen! Jim gave us his cell number and said anytime we wanted to get home, just call him directly and he would be there asap! I remember his good nature and kindness and wanted to share that with his family. I am so sorry for your loss.

Jim was a really good guy, with a family he loved dearly. A hard worker beyond measure. I drove taxi for his company for years, and got to know him quite well. He was always understanding and patient, even when things were a mess. He will be sadly missed.
