I am very sorry to learn of your Dad’s passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of loss. May God fill your hearts with His comfort & peace in the knowledge that Jim is no longer in pain or living through the trials of the pandemic.
Your parents were very faithful to attend worship when they moved to Glencoe. Jim always shared a song with a memory each week after the service. He LOVED church hymns and knew the lyrics to more songs than most people I have known! He had a great voice and was always ready to sing. He shared memories of his years working at the gravel pit for Johnston Brothers. His favourite story was to tell people that when he met your mom Marilyn, he found a Lemon. Then he would laugh because that was her maiden name. He could be gruff but he loved the Lord immensely, he was proud of his family and wanted only the best for your lives - children and grandchildren and your families. Please receive our condolences and prayers. May Christ lead you beside the still waters of life and give you rest, so that he may renew your strength to continue on your faith journey with Him.
Peace and Much love;
Rev. Deb Dolbear-Van Bilsen and Family and Jim’s Family
in GPC (Glencoe Presbyterian Church)
