Jean, Kathy and Family,
So sorry to hear of Jim’s passing. My sincerest condolences to the family.
I was so very sorry to hear about his passing. Even though we didn’t see each other as much in recent years, he truly meant the world to me and will always hold a special place in my heart.
Being neighbours gave us so many memories I’ll always treasure — playing cards, tossing a baseball around, and just sitting and talking for hours about everything and nothing. And of course, all those wonderful times at the Exeter Legion — so much laughter that my sides would ache. He had such a kind heart and an incredible sense of humour that made every moment brighter.
I’m also thinking of Sheena during this difficult time. She was such a warm and caring person, and I have so many fond memories of times shared with her and Carol at the Legion. Those were truly special.
My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Sheena, Kevin, and Carol. May all the stories, laughter, and love you shared carry you through the days ahead, and may his memory always bring a smile along with the tears. He will never be forgotten.
With deepest Sympathy
Kate (Kathy) Wallace Brawn
Sheena and Jim’s family,

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of Jim’s family and friends. Thanks for the memories cousin Jim. R.I.P.
My deepest condolences Jean, Carol and family. You have my heartfelt sympathy for your recent loss.
Auntie Sheena and family, I am so sad and shocked to hear that Uncle Jim has passed. Even though we haven’t seen each other for some time I think of both of you often and miss our fun chats. May your wonderful memories help you through this very sad time. Take care.
