Jim led an adventurous life, joining the Royal Canadian Navy as a boy seaman and serving aboard the HMCS Agassiz, the Huron and the Iroquois during WWII, receiving many medals including the Arctic Star and the French Legion of Honor. In May 1945 he married Doreen Walley of Manchester, England. His life post-war led him to the Hamilton Police Department, serving for thirty-nine years, mostly in the C.I.D. and the Youth Division.
