Jim was a wonderfull man and he will be greatly misssed. During my first couple of years at Thames Valley he shared his knowledge with me, and trained me as a friend and a mentor. Jim was a truely kind and caring person. I am privileged to have known him.
I have a picture of Jim on my boat with a big semi-worried! grin on his face, from one of their trips to Toronto to visit Marcia. Optimistic, hard-working and willing, he’s been a good man, loved his family, and his energy and memory will carry on as Papa. My condolences to Marcia, Nicole, Kevin and all your families.
Marcia and Family,
Please accept my sincerest condolences during this difficult time.
May your many memories together continue to live on in your hearts always.
Deepest regards,
Doreen Kolkman

While we cannot wish that Jim would continue in such a state of “limbo”, we cannot but feel that he is in a better place. Still, the world is just a little poorer for his passing. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Jim was a kind and gentle man. He will be missed greatly by his family and friends.
Our condolences to all members of the Duncan family. Jim, you will be remembered fondly and always be in our hearts and in our prayers.
Carlo and Nancy Perrotta and family.
To the Duncan Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
In deepest sympathy,
Julieta & Pearce
To Marcia:
