To Carol and all of the”Lee family”It is with great sadness that I learned of Jim’s passing. My sincere, albeit belated condolences . No matter how much time passed since he and I may have last met up, he always had something to chat and joke about. In addition to his amazing train set, I’ll always remember his dedicated service to the Credit Valley KC

We have been blessed to be forever friends with the Lee Family for as long as I can remember. Marion Lee and my mother, Isabel Drummond Irwin enjoyed a lifelong friendship.

May they find comfort in the many happy memories from years ago they hold of James in their hearts.
