Thanks for all the music and laughs, Jim.
We'll miss you.
I would like to express my condolences to Jackie and family. Jim was a character, always ready with a laugh. I would start to tell him a joke and he would start laughing before he even heard the punch line. Jackie will understand when
i say Jim had his own very special version of steel toed boots. i hope this brought a smile to your face in this very sad time.
R.I.P my friend.

Jackie, Lorena and Family, please accept our sincerest condolences. Over the last few years we had an opportunity to get to know Jim, who made a great summer neighbour at the lake. I had the pleasure of hearing some of Jim’s favourite stories from the department, as well as hearing about some of his motorcycle and adventures he had with Jackie. You’ll be missed Sir, Heaven has another musician!!
