6. Dear Gwen & family, please accept our sincere condolences on the untimely passing of Jim. He possessed a genuine knack for making anyone he met a new friend. One of my favourite memories of Jim was playing several years as a foursome in John Greens charity golf tournament along with Jim M. & Gordie G. where he had a once of a lifetime shot placing a golf ball precisely in the security screen mesh next to the tee box on #14. We laughed about each year thereafter as we tee’d off. So long Jim , “hit ‘em far but not too often”.
   Sincerely
   Ken & Sylvia

45. Gwen, our sincere condolences to you and your families. We are so sorry to hear of Jim’s passing. Cherish your wonderful memories. Hugs.

46. When he was DDGM, Jim approached me and asked me to take on a role on his team. He saw something in me that I didn’t, and that made a big impact on me. He attended my lodge and sat quietly until the end of the meeting to make a presentation to me on behalf of Grand Lodge, and that made a big impression on me. His enthusiasm was more that for Freemasonry – he was enthused for the members and their families. I shall indeed cherish his memory in my heart. My deep condolences to dear Gwennie and all the family of whom Jim was so proud.

47. Deepest sympathies to Jim’s family. I grew up with Jim at the United Church in Brigden. Oh the fun we had even though he was older than me. Hugs to each of you as say your final goodbye.
