“To Chris and Mike and family. Our deepest sympathy to you and all Jim’s family. Jim was a very thoughtful and giving man. In Sherwood Park he was Mr. Hockey dedicating countless hours to minor hockey and especially the Junior B Knights. He touched many hearts and will not be forgotten. We met Jim and Jo through hockey and enjoyed many years of friendship at the hockey rink, the curling rink, “smiley’s village” to name a few. We have many wonderful memories. Rick and Pat Bresciani”

He was so giving of his time and talents. They will be missed and never forgotten.”
