    It is with sincere thoughts and heartfelt prayers that we send this note to Hazel Péron/Buist and her family on the departure of Jim for the Grand Lodge Above. Her many nieces, nephews, cousins in Québec, Canada at large and the U.S. do join us in a fond recollection of past years when we were privileged to know Jim as part of family. Dorothy and René.

    I worked with Jim at 3M and he was one of the nicest persons I knew. My heartfelt condolences to the family.
