Default "Tis a sad Ting"....

"Tis a sad Ting"....as the Irish would say! I never knew Jim voice to voice...but I did converse with him through the MLU Forum or through emails. And as I speak for everyone so far...."just one hell of a nice guy". Extremely sorry that this voice of knowledge has passed and my condolences to his family. Kind regards to all.....Robert

Default Jim's Grandchildren's Trust Fund

Hello

Following the Memorial Service was a Procession, which was lead by Jim's Dad's M38, which he had built from NOS parts. Jim recently had it restored but never took it out for a drive as he was too ill.
Jim's children were in the M38 carrying Jim's Ashes. Photo was taken by Rob Greive.

The Procession included many tow trucks as well as a couple of Military vehicles.

There will be a trail-ride later this year taking Jim to his final resting place.

For those wishing to contribute to Jim's Grandchildren's Trust Fund. please make cheques payable to " Fraser Family in Trust" and mail to Boyce Funeral Home 138 Daniel St North, Arnprior ON K7S 2L3

Thanks
Eric

Default Very saddened by the news of Jim’s passing

Jim was a great man with old school honesty
We talked semi regularly in the last few years on and off , at great lengths , ( as I’m sure he did with many here),
Lots of great stories of finds , his history with the collecting/restoring pastime
Purolaterd parts back n forth ; with him ,etc
I’d been away from everything for a while dealing with my dad’s battle
, n eventual losing him to same cancers recently
These fellas fought this horrible disease as warriors , staying as positive
As possible , and will be sadly missed
I’ve just recently gotten back online , realizing the passing of Jim also
My condolences to his family and very saddened at the loss of this great fella
He was larger than life , and honored that I got to talk with him whenever I did
Thanks Jim for being a great mentor for many , and for being an example of what a good hard working , honest family man is .. Will never forget you
Will speak of you in the highest regards always , condolences to the family again , and may you Rest In Peace Jim
