My ex-husband & I knew Jim many years ago when we lived in Invermere, BC. Haven't been in contact in a long time but I remember Jim fondly. A kind and fun-loving man. I'll always remember how he would clean the TV screen as soon as he walked in our door - even if I had just done it myself! Always made us laugh. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

I was saddened to hear that Jim is no longer with us. My fondest memories include Big Sky Montana sitting around a fire with Jim indulging in many beverages and belly laughs for dessert. A great sense of humor and a lust for life. A pleasure to have crossed paths. Rest in Peace.

Certainly sad news to hear on the Atlantic Coast with the passing of my " old" friend, Jim. I have so many fond memories of the apartment downtown ( endless parties) to the house in MacKenzie ( more parties) and of course the Trips to the Land in Montana....they will stay with me forever. God Bless my Friend, we had so many good times. Much Love and Sadness- Shane Loughery- Moncton, NB
