To the Family: Sending our sincere sympathy to you. Jim was a chaperone for our son Joel (and other children) who were selected to represent Nova Scotia at the World's Children Baseball Fair in Regina quite a number of years ago. Joel is now 30 so we are thinking it was around 1999 or 2000? Jim was so great with the kids and built up quite a friendship with them all. On one of our family vacations we stopped in to say hello to Jim and his dear wife.
Lots of great memories. Jim was a very gracious and caring gentleman.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Sincerely David, Elaine and Joel Holland
