Dear Sylvia, Paul, Laure, Patrick and Leanne: Know that you all are in my heart and in my prayers. You are precious to me and I wish I was closer. I remember so many special things Jim did for me and was to me --you all are for the 'home away from home' you provided when life asked more. I know you will hold close and honour all the memories of what he was as husband and father. How thankful I am that I became part of your family. What a Godsend you all were! Love and hugs for everyone -- tht means Kath, Gary, Sandy, Grant and all those precious grandchildren too.

Dear Sylvia, Paul, Patrick, Leanne & Laura,We are so sorry. Jim welcomed us into your family and was like a surrogate Dad to us when we arrived in Winnipeg. We are thankful that he took us under his wing, told us the stories about family, friends, and our genealogy. Jim seemed to know just about everything and everyone. I came with him from time to time on his rounds- he loved Winnipeg and everyone and everything in it, and it showed. All the while, as he'd show us about the town (solving whatever problem had emerged), he'd be talking about Wyman and the goings-on in Bristol 50, 100, 150 years ago! I enjoyed those talks, and learned so much, even if I had to race to catch up. I am grateful every day for how I came to Winnipeg, and for how Jim looked after us. I still laugh every October, when the weather is still warm, to think of Jim turning up with the parka on a balmy afternoon, saying, 'you'll need this.' - and then the Colorado clipper hit!Sylvia, Jim was such an enormous part, for Tamara and me, of the early days of our lives together. He wasn't just 'Dad's cousin'. He was our friend. We'll miss him.

Sylvia & Family. We will miss the wonderful visits & phone calls. We will never forget the trips to Winnipeg, the hospitality and the kindness shown Shawn & Tam when they lived in Winnipeg.
