Peacefully, at home, on May 11, 2021 in his 99th year. Beloved husband of the late Lillian (2010). Loving father of Jamie (Miriam), and Laurie (David) Hart. Cherished Poppa of Kaitlyn (Cyril), Rachel (Taylor), Alex (Meagan), Andrea (Mitch), and Joshua. Treasured great-grandpa to Max, Lily, Nova, and soon to arrive Baby Mayrand and Baby Graf.

Jim had strong roots on Church Street and at Point Pelee. He was retired from CBC after many years of service. Jim was a WWII Veteran of the RCAF and was involved with the Canadian Historical Aircraft Association. We are thankful for the many things Dad taught us including mixing cement, water skiing, fishing, beekeeping, a love of music and fixing just about anything.
Heartfelt thanks to Nancy Shelson, Dr. Roxanna Chow, St. Elizabeth and Amy’s Helping Hands for their care and compassion.
If you so desire, memorial donations to the Friends of Point Pelee would be appreciated by the family.
Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Arrangements entrusted to Families First, 3260 Dougall Ave., South Windsor, 519-969-5841.
