Jim was a gentleman to the core, and always had a smile and happy greeting for all.
Our family remembers trips to Nova Scotia to visit he and Jean. They were always so welcoming and loving to Ian and my sons. Many letters were exchanged back and forth over the years from B.C. to N.S. , and many phone calls made.
Jim was a superb golfer . When he and Jean first met, she was smitten with him, and when he asked her if she was a golfer, she quickly replied ”Oh , yes!”
A date was made to go golfing the next day . When Jim went to pick her up , a quick revision was made, as there were no clubs etc., visible. But the connection was made, and Jean and he started a courtship , got married, and consequently, enjoyed many games all over Ontario, N.S., P.E.I., the U.S., and no doubt, many other locations. We loved hearing his hole -in-one stories.
As a radar specialist he flew missions in Canadian aircrafts, and once, he recalled seeing Russian ships during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Not only a gentleman, but a brave soldier as well!
He will be missed and remembered fondly by all of us.
Nancy Muise and family.

My memories of Uncle Jim are of the times he visited with my Dad. Jim was always smiling and jovial. My Dad was excited about spending time together. When Uncle Jim introduced us to his close friend Cecilia my family and I loved her energy and openness. Jim mentioned her often in his letters.
Jim was an honourable man . Rest in Peace . To all his friends and family who got to know him, probably more than me , my deepest condolences.
