James Rennick Archibald It is with sadness that we announce the death of Jim Archibald on March 26, 2010 at the Veterans Village at Sherbrooke Community Centre.

Jim was a veteran of WWII having served in the Navy. He was predeceased by his loving wife Marjory and brother Norman. He is survived by his son Tom, his daughter-in-law Suellen, his grandson Brett, his sister Edith and many nieces and nephews.

My sincere condolences to the family. Especially to Tom and family and to Aunt Edith, also to the Philips families, and family of the late Norman Archibald...I remember many good times spent with the Archibald family. Jim was a fine gentleman and was always ready to stop and chat. He will be missed by many. May God bless you and surround you with His peace and love at this time of loss.
