    Aunt Dorothy and Family
    We have very fond memories of Uncle Jimmy and are sadden by his loss. We are especially proud that he played for us in our first waltz/dance as husband and wife – may we live to enjoy 57 years together like you have. He was a fine gentlemen cut from a very fine fabric. He was on my mind just his morning when we heard ‘The Tennessee Waltz’ on the bus&&single&& music system (if you can imagaine that!)while shuttling to Pearl Harbour! We send you our love and sincere condolences across the miles!
    Love Debbie Melady, Ken, Jack and Vincent Wilcox

    Our thoughts and Prayers are with your family at this time. I will always remember Uncle Jimmy for playing his fiddle and love of music. When I was working at peopleCare nursing home in Stratford we had the honour of having him play with family there for our residents. You could tell how much he loved his music and sharing with others. I know whenever I would see him, with my Mother (Veronica Price (Shea) He would always say how he remembered me as the little dancing girl!
