Condolence: Jim, how could so much time have passed without me knowing you have silently left our side. I am heartbroken finding out today, from reading your fathers Earls obituary, that you have passed away. You were such an influence on my life at 16 years old, and shaped a part of who I became. You were like an older brother that seemed to relish teasing me yet at the same time looking out for me. I will miss you my friend, it seems like just yesterday when I invited you to the house and you taught my son how to tie his fishing lure. I hope you have finally found peace and are at your fathers side. I will truly miss you Jim, I thought I had more time to see you again....

Condolence: As the year passes, we are remembering with you.

Condolence: I am saddened to read of the passing of the last of my childhood friends from Cornwall St. in Waterloo [aka. Cornwall Street gang]. Jim, Chris Allard, Jeff Thompson and myself could always be found playing in the neighbourhood getting into some sort of trouble, or going out on adventures and hikes to places we weren't supposed to go. I'll remember the many afternoons spent with Johnny West or Major Matt Mason. I fondly remember Jim's piano lessons, wishing I could have taken lessons too; because of this 'seed', I started taking piano lessons 3 years ago all thanks to him. I have been looking on and off for Jim in the past 10 years since moving back to Kitchener; sadly he's been under the radar. My thoughts go out to his sister Sandra and her family, and brother Kelly and family. My heartfelt sorrow is for his children Sarah and Bradley, and Jim's father Earl. In God's trust. Stephen
