To know him was to love him as witnessed by his loyal friendships with childhood friends.
Music was one of Jim’s passions. He enjoyed singing before an audience and savoured their approval.
Jim enjoyed celebrating special occasions with family and friends.
Jim also enjoyed spending some time at the casino where he often successfully left AHEAD.
