We are so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He had such a wonderful sense of humor. We always enjoyed our visits when you two were out in BC, and loved hearing him tell the stories about your many travels and adventures together in your annual Christmas letter. He will be missed by all who knew him. All our love to you Janice, and family ~ Hugs,

I will never forget swimming at Uncle Jim's in the summer and I don't think that Uncle Jim and Aunt Janice ever forgot a Birthday or Christmas for my entire life. He will be very missed and we are hoping that he is at peace. All my love to Aunt Janice and the family.
